I’ve had this recipe around for a few years. When I think of pomegranates it is always one of the first things that comes to my mind. I gave my husband a sample of the prepared dip and he said it tasted like Christmas. He was right! It comes together really quickly and is so beautiful.

As soon as I heard that the Recipe Redux team was partnering with Cabot for a Facebook live, I knew what I was going to be making, really the Facebook Live video says it all. Watch the video here.

In the video I shared the recipe and few tips for picking the perfect pomegranate:(Every time I say this I feel like I am reciting a tongue twister like Sally sells seashells by the seashore.)

  1. The heavier the better
  2. Pick one that is dark red in color
  3. Try to pick one that is free from bruises

A Recipe Dedication

I don’t usually make my blog posts too personal or too serious. Well I do talk a lot about my picky eaters. We had a close friend pass away just over 2 weeks ago. She was one of those friends you don’t realize how big of a part of your life she is until she was gone. But she was always a supporter of mine and when I shared this recipe the first time 2 years ago on Instagram   she was one of the few likes and comments I received. It’s silly I know, but I find myself going back to re-read her little 3 letter comment as if it’s the first time I’ve read it. I have lots of other memories and thoughts of her, but for some reason that comment and this recipe stick in my mind. So I hope that you will make this recipe and share it with the ones that you love and that you get a few “yum”s as well.
