Baby Arugula and Tomato Salad with Pomegranate Seeds

As the blooms are bursting from the earth and the trees with color and life after a long winter and cold spring, it seems fitting to serve a colorful and vibrant salad that is bursting with fresh rich flavors. Zesty tomatoes and lemon contrast beautifully with sweet, tart and juicy pomegranate seeds and crisp slices of red onion in this salad. Homemade bread croutons help to soak up any excess dressing, and when added just before serving the salad, add a pleasant crunchy contrast to the other components of the salad. The arugula is silky and peppery, and the whole plate is an explosion of pure joy. In a rush to prepare the rest of the dinner, my plating skills here do not at all do this lovely salad justice, but I promise you, your taste...
