Now that you know all about pomegranates, it's time to incorporate them into a dish that will brighten up any meal. This recipe was inspired by a Moroccan dish in our our Mediterranean recipe collection. It's a salad that is sure to please, thanks to its beautiful color and amazing flavors.Ingredients:

• 1 cup sliced radishes
• 1 orange, peeled, halved, and sliced
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1 tsp red wine vinegar
• Juice from 1/2 a lime
• Pomegranate seeds

Directions:

• Mix all ingredients (except pomegranate seeds) together in mixing bowl.
• Chill until ready to serve.
• Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds just before serving.

Chef's Tips:

• Try to slice the radishes very thin and in consistent slices for a nice presentation.
• You can mix up the vinegars to shift the flavor profile. For a milder kick, try white wine vinegar, or for a more layered flavor, use balsamic instead. If you go with the latter, know that it will affect the color of the finished dish.
