This sounds good and I am going to try it:
Roasted Pomegranate Chickpea Salad
3 Tbsps. pomegranate molasses
½ tsp. garlic powder
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. ground black pepper
Two 15-oz. cans chickpeas, drained
2 Tbsps. olive oil
2 Tbsps. lemon juice
Ground black pepper
4 cups arugula
2 cups baby spinach
Kosher salt
4-oz. log soft goat cheese
Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the pomegranate molasses, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Add the drained chickpeas and toss to coat evenly. Arrange the chickpeas in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 15 minutes, or until the chickpeas are dried and starting to get crunchy.
Remove the chickpeas from the oven and set aside to cool.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice. Season with pepper, then add the arugula and spinach. Toss to coat.
Divide the greens between 4 serving plates, then sprinkle each with kosher salt. Divide the chickpeas between the salads, then top with crumbled goat cheese. Makes 4 servings

Mango Salsa
8 Servings
1 large mango, or 5 ounces frozen mango, thawed and chopped
1 large tomato, chopped (seeds removed if desired)
1 tablespoon finely chopped jalapeno pepper, or 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice, or to taste
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
To prepare the fresh mango, peel it and use a sharp knife to cut flesh off pit, then cut it into 1/4-inch cubes. Or, use the “porcupine” method (see note). Place diced mango in a medium mixing bowl.
Add remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl with the mango. Stir to combine and let stand 15 minutes to allow flavors to develop.
Stored in a covered container in the refrigerator, leftover Mango Salsa will stay fresh for up to one day.
