May not take 45 mins., but the pomegranate takes forever to de-seed. I freeze my cranberries and omit the pomegranate if I can't find any @ that time of the year. I just found a quick way to de-seed: http://lifehacker.com/5895852/deseed-a-pomegranate-in-10-seconds-using-a-wooden-spoon

How To Make cranberry/pomegranate salad

  • 1
    Peel pomegrante & de-seed.(Score about 2mm around the middle and carefully pull apart. Seed side in your hand, take a wooden spoon and hit the skin all the way around. Do it to the next half. Pick out flesh and membranes.)
  • 2
    Zest orange. Peel it. Then dice up
  • 3
    Either in your home electric shredder, coffee grinder, or salad shooter, shred or grind up cranberries. I freeze mine and take them straight from the freezer.
  • 4
    Wash apples, core them, slice and dice into bite size pieces.
  • 5
    Put lime into microwave for 20 secs., zest and squeeze. (Microwaving makes it easier to get all the juice.
  • 6
    Mix all the ingredients together with a heaping tablespoon of honey.
