I made this for a get-together as I needed a festive salad. Seeding the pomegranate (in a bowl of water) was a bit time-consuming but the rest of it came together quickly. I used regular orange juice in the dressing as a time-saver. I served it in one large bowl tossed with just half or so of the dressing, and everyone commented on how colorful, festive and different it was. Next time I would make less dressing and might try concentrating the juice on the stove for more pronounced flavor, but I would make this again.
