    Fantastic! Finally found a way my young kids will eat spinach! I only used half of the oil and it was perfect.

    The recipe sounds delicious and I really want to make it. But I have no idea where to find pomegranate molasses. Did you mean juice? That is readily available.

    This is a great salad for parties. We made it last night for New Year's Eve and it was a HUGE success. The only change I made was to leave the dressing off until each guest was served, just to make sure the greens were nice and crisp.
