Tips and Considerations

You can cut a pomegranate open, separate the seeds from the white membranes which taste quite bitter and pop the seeds in your mouth just the way they are. The seeds also enhance the flavor and nutrition of many other recipes. Toss pomegranate seeds with olive oil and spices and pour the mixture over roasted Brussels sprouts, or scatter a few seeds over a tossed green salad. Combine chopped cilantro and pomegranate seeds and use the mixture as a tasty topping for grilled pork chops or roasted chicken breasts. Stir the seeds into lowfat yogurt as another way to add them to your diet.
