The Pomegranate is a wonderful fall staple! As one of the fruits highest in antioxidants, it often gets passed by in the grocery store because it is much harder to cut and serve than other fruits. There is a trick I used that is pictured below. Basically I cut it in half (just start the cut with your knife and then pull apart with your hands to save more seeds). Next I submerge the two halves in water for about an hour. Then I break the halves into pieces releasing the seeds into the water. I have found this is the best way to do this without breaking the seeds open and splashing red juice all over myself. This nutrient dense fruit can be used in many ways including juice, a topping to salads, addition to smoothies, creating a sauce, desserts, and can even be incorporated into main dishes. If you have any special ways of eating or opening a pomegranate, please share :)
