Have you all been reading her blog?
http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/MJFBlog/

Well, if you have, you know she has a bit of a quandry on her hands... What to do with a pomegranate?

So I figured I would post some links here below! If you have any great recipes or ideas- please share them!

My favorite way to eat a pomegranate is to cut it and harvest the seeds. They look like little rubies hidden inside that leathery skin. I love popping them into my mouth one at a time and popping that little juicy ruby between my teeth. Then of course I have to spit the seed out. But that little taste of juice- yum! A perfect little sip, like nature's own sweet wine. Yum.

I have never eaten a pomegranate so I will be "listening" for recommendations.

Cheers,
Heather

Hmm, I was starting to like her idea of just drying them out for decor!

Sprinkle the seeds over a lemon bread pudding. YUM!!
Or, whir the seeds in your food processor, strain the juice and make sparkly holiday drinks with- are you ready?- diet 7-up. Safe for the kiddies. Add a lemon slice if you want. Give the pulp to the birds for a tasty treat.
Or, use the juice to make jelly.
Or, use the seeds to make a sauce for pork.
Or, eat them whole and spit the seeds out at your hubby. hahahahaha. Just kidding.
Or, sprinkle them on vanilla ice cream.
Or, smush them on toast with butter.
I'm sure that there are a ton more ideas out there.
C'mon girls!!

Or make soap with pomegranate fragrance oil and use the seeds in the soap! That's what I have planned for January!

I love pomegranates!! I have a recipe called "happy rice" that has pomegranate seeds and bits of other veggies in it...and I serve chunks of chicken in a cream sauce over it..yum!!
I like them best just plain...a big mess when I eat one..but worth it for sure!
