I know the components of this salad seem like your typical Rosh Hashanah salad ingredients. But the real star here is the date dressing. It tastes amazing on everything!

SERVES 6–8

• 1 12-oz (340-g) bag mixed greens
• 2 precooked large beets, cut into matchsticks
• ½ cup pomegranate arils
• 1 Granny Smith apple, cut into matchsticks

Dressing

• ¼ cup lemon juice
• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• ¼ cup honey
• 6 dates, pitted
• ½ tsp kosher salt

For the dressing: Place all the ingredients into a blender. Blend on low until everything is combined and the dates are chopped. Place in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 1 week.

To assemble salad: Place all the salad components in a large bowl and mix well. Drizzle ¹⁄₄ cup of dressing on top and toss to coat. Serve with remaining dressing on the side. Enjoy!
