Autumn Salad with Figs
As the fall season approaches, healthful salads are a great side item on days where you may be eating heavier festive foods that can cause a carbohydrate and fat dump, leaving you sluggish and ready for a nap. Avoid that feeling by creating a healthy side dish to go along with foods that might be richer in flavors, higher in fat, and packed full of carbs. Figs and pomegranate seeds are the stars of this dish. High in fiber and rich in antioxidants, this salad is perfect addition to any menu. And always fill up on the salad goodness first (a little tip)!
In a mason jar with lid, pour oil, vinegar, maple syrup and mustard and seal with a lid. Shake to incorporate and set aside.
Arrange the greens on a platter. Top with figs, pomegranate seeds and feta cheese crumbles and lightly pour half of the dressing over the top and serve.
