Fresh Fruit Pomegranate Salad

Pomegranate Fruit Salad

Disclosure: This Fresh Fruit Pomegranate Salad recipe post has been sponsored by PotsandPans.com,  our sponsor for the second  week in the Progressive Dinner round up. All opinions are my own.

Around the holidays when everyone is eating big heavy meals I like to serve a refreshing fresh fruit salad at our family gatherings. Fruit salads are one of the easiest salads you can make. You don't really need a recipe because you can make a delicious fruit salad with whatever fruit is in season or that you have on hand. Today I am sharing a Fresh Fruit Pomegranate Salad that includes some fruit varieties that are readily available during the winter months, like pomegranates. I love to add pomegranates to my fruit salads when they are available. They add a fun crunch to any fruit salad. 

This weeks Progressive Dinner is all about salad recipes. As I told you last week myself and 5 other food bloggers are celebrating the 2014 Holiday Menu Planning with another fun Progressive Dinner roundup of recipes. Last week I shared an Easy Slow Roasted Pot Roast recipe with you for our Main Course Progressive Dinner roundup of recipes.

This week we are all sharing a salad recipe for our Salad Course Progressive Dinner roundup of recipes. 

I have to say I am IN LOVE with the RACHAEL RAY CUCINA STONEWARE set. I love everything about it from the Aztec blue color to the look and feel of all the pieces.

Serve this Fresh Fruit Pomegranate Salad alongside any meal you want a refreshing and light salad as a side dish. During the summer I love to make fresh fruit salads when we barbecue.

Instructions 

• Prepare the grapefruit, pomegranate, and oranges, by peeling and sectioning the fruit.
• Place the prepared grapefruit, pomegranate, oranges, grapes, blueberries and sugar into a bowl and mix.
• Refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving (overnight is best).
• Right before serving peel and cut the apples, pears and bananas into a small bowl and squeeze the juice of the lemon over the fruit. Mix well so the lemon juice covers all sides of the fruit. This is to prevent browning.
• Add the fruit and lemon juice to the bowl of fruit that has been refrigerated. Gently mix the fruit.
• If using a watermelon for serving scoop out the watermelon flesh from the center of one half reserving the watermelon flesh for another use. Place the fruit salad into the hollowed out watermelon shell to serve.
• Arrange raspberries over the top of the fruit salad.
• Serve the fruit salad chilled.
