Step 1

Make the lemon vinaigrette by combining the lemon juice, olive oil, honey, Dijon, garlic, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste, together in a small glass jar. Seal with a lid and shake well; set aside to allow the flavors time to mingle.

Step 2

To serve the salad place the romaine in a large bowl then drizzle a little of the well-shaken lemon vinaigrette, to taste, on the lettuce then toss to coat evenly.

Step 3

Place the dressed lettuce on a serving plate. Top with avocado slices, pomegranate arils, toasted pine nuts, chives, and lots of freshly cracked black pepper.

Step 4

Serve immediately with the remaining lemon vinaigrette on the side. Enjoy.
