Preparation

Step 1

Place the spinach, persimmons, pomegranate seeds, pecans and red onions in a large bowl.

In a small jar, combine the orange juice, vinegar, maple syrup, lime juice, cinnamon, olive oil, and season with salt & pepper. Seal tightly with a lid, then shake well until combined.

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients, then toss together gently. Alternatively, you could arrange the salad ingredients on four individual plates and serve the dressing on the side.
