Holiday Pomegranate, Pear, And Grape

Features:
    Cuisine:

    A wonderful holiday salad, and beautiful to boot. used at least double the pomegranate seeds and only a teaspoon of the brown sugar, since we aren't big on sweet dressings. I also went light on the orange zest, which worked out well, though I think for some diners you might want to skip their plates. The flavors in this salad blend very well together and would be great any time of year that you can find pomegranates.
