Pomegranate Salsa
I worship pomegranates both for their taste and many health benefits—rich in antioxidants, Vitamins C and K, fiber, folate, copper, phosphorous, and potassium, and are an anti-inflammatory. Hello superfood. I find removing the crimson arils soothing and relaxing. And since they are so abundant in winter, this is a great salsa eaten with chips, added to greens either fresh or cooked, over grilled fish and chicken or tossed into a quinoa.
