I didn't make the salad, but I am rating the recipe for the dressing. I wanted a lemon vinaigrette to marinate some blanched, chilled asparagus. It was delicious! I don't know about the "too tart" that other reviewers mentioned, it didn't seem that way to me. I guess it could depend on the size of the lemon and the quality of the vinegar could vary too. I loved the fresh taste the lemon zest brought to the dressing.

The dressing was good, but way too tart. I like sour things, but I only put 1/3 of the lemon juice called for and it was as sour as I could ever imagine wanting. The trick to dressing is to mix all ingredients other than the oil, then drizzle the oil in very slowly, whisking vigorously as it drizzles. This keeps the dressing from separating. The salad was good, but the pomegranate seeds fell to the bottom of the bowl and it was an effort to get some in each bite. My DH and I didn't think they really added anything to the salad, so for the leftovers we left out the pomegranate and added mandarin oranges and sugar-coated pecans. We both thought that went better with the feta and tart dressing.

I made this last night for family and friends. Everyone loved it. I hate when people change the recipe, but it was REALLY tart, so I doubled everything but the lemon juice and zest when making the dressing. A very different salad! It was time consuming getting the seeds out of the pomegranate, be careful not to squirt on good clothes....I think the juice stains.

This salad is DELICIOUS. I used fresh spinach with chopped romaine lettuce instead of the packaged bag greens. I also added a little more olive oil and salt to the vinagarette because it was a little too tart when I tasted it. It also seemed to make an awful lot, so I didn't pour the entire amount on. Pomegranates were out of season when I made this, so I used sliced fresh peaches instead, and it worked wonderfully. The salad was a HUGE hit at my mom's birthday dinner, and everyone went back for second helpings!
