Pomegranate seeds are easy to get out. Buy a whole pomegranate, split it open, turn one half inside out, and smack the skin side. The seeds will fall out.

Yum!!! That looks great. Thanks, OP!

This look amazing. Thanks for sharing!

YUM! I'm going to try it this week.

You can buy Pomegranate seeds at Trader Joes.

OP here, this one looks good too! I think I will try it with adding artichokes (as suggested in the add-ins). Thanks for posting this!

I would skip the pomegranate b/c the seeds are a bit of a pain to get out of the fruit. I have seen them sold out of the fruit in packages. Both are a little pricey. This is what they look like:

This salad looks delicious and healthy just as it is. Thanks for sharing.

I have gotten pomegranate seeds at Balduccis. Other food stores-too. Do not remember where. Delicious.

Ignore the PP, OP. This salad looks delish and healthy. Arils are just the edible seeds inside the pomegranate. That's what you eat when you open a pomegranate. I would def make this. I might use salmon or chicken instead, because I'm allergic to shrimp. I also like the site; she has other good recipes as well.

Judging from the photo, arils are just the seeds. Imagine you can get a pomegranate at Whole Foods.

Quinoa looks like worms. Ew.

I am so obsessed with this recipe (eating it every single day!) that I just need to share: http://iowagirleats.com/recipes/superfood-salad-with-lemon-vinaigrette/

The only thing I omit are the pomegranate arils, mainly because I have no idea what they are- does anyone know and where in the grocery store they are located? I also use a little less oil and add the shrimp. I feel like it is pretty healthy- opinions?
