Combining superfoods can boost your energy and immune system

The Pomegranate Council shares a superfood recipe that combines salmon and pomegranates into a delicious and super-nutritious dish.
FRESH pomegranates have been called the "jewel of winter," and are usually available from September through December.
The pomegranate's history goes back to Biblical times, but its current popularity is thoroughly modern --- it's in increasing demand because of studies that have shown it's loaded with disease-fighting antioxidants, high in potassium and fiber, and contains vitamin C and niacin.
In this easy-to-assemble dish, the pomegranate is combined with another "super food," salmon, for an elegant lunch or dinner entree.
Mix pomegranate seeds, onion, lime juice, jalapeno pepper and garlic; gently fold in avocado.
If holding for more than 30 minutes, cover the salsa with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.
To prepare the salmon, rub a generous amount of the reserved seasoning mixture over each piece.
Arrange salmon on a baking sheet, skin side down.
Roast at 500 degrees (F) about 11 minutes for medium rare.
While the salmon cooks, mound 1/4 of the shredded romaine on each of 4 serving plates.
When salmon is done let it cool slightly; it should be warm, but not hot.
Put a piece of salmon on each plate; garnish each with a reserved romaine leaf and 2 lime wedges.
