Add a touch of tart sweetness—and a pop of color—with a winter fruit such as antioxidant-rich pomegranate or apples. These days you can get nice berries year 'round, so other options include raspberries, strawberries, and blueberries. Dried cranberries will work in a pinch, too.Let your salad stand on its merits. You have a lot of great-tasting ingredients in there, so don't drown it all in a bath of sugary salad dressing.
Add a touch of sweetness like local honey or maple syrup. Optional to thicken: a spoonful of mustard or tahini. Season with salt, pour into a mason jar, seal it and shake well.Refreshing, colorful, nutritious, and super-low in calories, herbs amplify any salad's flavor quotient. But they've gotta be fresh. Try parsley, cilantro, mint, and basil to name just a few.
