Jewel carrot salad with apple and pomegranate

In the fall our pomegranate tree is covered in cheerful red pompoms and the kitchen table is covered with the fruit in various stages of pitting. My mother by the way has mastered the art of tasting pomegranate seeds. If she finds a particularly sweet batch she saves them to eat (rather than juicing them) and walks around with a bowl full of the seeds insisting that we taste them.

Pomegranate seeds are in almost everything we make this time of year. On our cereal. In green salads (great with avocado). In quesadillas. (Corn tortillas jack cheese salsa pomegranate seeds—amazing!) So when my friend Suzanne H recently served me some of her carrot salad with pomegranate seeds I thought of course!

This is a playful twist on the classic carrot salad with some pomegranate seeds and craisins for a pop of color and flavor topped off with some freshly squeezed lime juice and a little honey.
