The inspiration for this gorgeous herb salad came from a similar one I always order at one of my favorite cafes. From the moment I first ordered their herb salad I was hooked. With a few modifications I was able to make it my own and enjoy it on this lovely summer afternoon.
A bright combination of parsley, cilantro and mint are tossed with radishes, walnuts, and dried cranberries. All that herb salad goodness sits on a bed of fresh tangy labaneh cheese and is dressed with a sweet and sour pomegranate vinaigrette. YUM.
