  • Slice each tomato in half. When ready, grab the spinach and stack each leaf on top of one another, roll the stack, and cut thin strips creating chiffonade cuts of spinach.
  • In a large bowl, add the mozzarella pearls, tomatoes, and spinach, set aside. Now we will make the dressing.
  • In a mixing bowl, add all of the dressing ingredients—lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pomegranate molasses, basil of choice, and mix until an emulsified dressing forms. I like to mix for about a solid minute. This helps puncture the basil and ensures the salt is evenly distributed throughout the dressing. Now let’s put it all together.
