This is a recipe I found in Ottelengi's Plenty More. I didn't follow the amount of tomatoes in the recipe. I used some of the gorgeous Heirloom tomatoes I picked up at Curious Cropper's last weekend.
The dressing was perfect! Definitely making this again... probably tonight.
These days you can usually find the pomegranate already seeded for you too!
