SPINACH AND PERSIMMON SALAD WITH GOAT CHEESE AND POMEGRANATE



Spinach and Persimmon Salad with Goat Cheese and Pomegranate image

I love how the sweet persimmon balances out the tartness that you get from the pomegranate arils and creamy goat cheese. Top that with the crunch of sliced almonds, and you have the perfect fall salad.

SPINACH SALAD WITH PROSCIUTTO AND PERSIMMON



Spinach Salad with Prosciutto and Persimmon image

This colorful salad, a mix of spinach, sweet persimmon, prosciutto and plenty of Parmesan-laced croutons, is satisfying enough for a light dinner. Or serve it as a somewhat unusual first course. Make sure to add enough oil and vinegar at the end to just coat the spinach, but not weigh the leaves down. The croutons can be made the day before; store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
