POM Wonderful® Celebrates with Seasonally-festive Recipes
TORONTO, Oct. 8, 2014 /CNW/ - 'Tis the season for... pomegranates?! POM Wonderful, the largest producer of Wonderful variety pomegranates in North America, is celebrating the return of pomegranate season. This month fresh Wonderful variety pomegranates and POM POMS™ Fresh Arils will be back in season and in Canadian produce aisles.
The festive fruit is great as a snack or even as a unique substitute for another sweet treat, the cranberry, this holiday season. For ten years, POM Wonderful has worked with local chefs and nutrition experts to celebrate the versatility and nutritional benefits of the fruit in dishes and beverages alike.
"Pomegranates are a healthy and tasty addition to everything from salads to roasts and baked treats that I often add to many of my clients' menu plans," says Beata Rydyger, RHN, founder of She Lives Clean. "If you're short on time, POM POMS Fresh Arils come in a convenient package of ready-to-eat arils and are an easy way to enjoy the fruit on the go."

Along with tips on how to best select, open and enjoy pomegranates, Simply Wonderful offers readers new recipes and daily POM-inspired ideas on how to best enjoy the seasonal fruit and POM® juices.
