SALAD:    Spinach Salad with Tangerines and Pomegranate Seeds

Pomegranate seeds — or arils — have been symbols of fertility, prosperity, and eternal life for thousands of years. In ancient Persia and Greece, the pomegranate was considered a sacred fruit connected to goddesses like Persephone and Aphrodite. Today, it’s still a sign of good luck and renewal in many cultures — and nutrition-wise, it’s packed with antioxidants that support heart health and glowing skin.

MAIN COURSE:    Meat Patties

You can use any meat for these patties. I prefer a mixture of beef, pork and veal in a 1:1:1 ratio.
