Can I make this salad dairy-free?

Yes. Simply omit the feta or use a plant-based cheese alternative.

How do I store leftovers?

Store undressed salad in an airtight container for up to 1 day. Keep the dressing separate.

Add grilled chicken, turkey, or chickpeas for added protein. These pair well with the sweet and tangy flavor profile.

A festive salad with greens, citrus, pomegranate, feta, and candied pecans tossed in a sweet honey-Dijon dressing. Perfect for Christmas dinner.
