2 mandarin oranges peeled and sectioned
1/2 cup pomegranate arils
1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled

To make a wreath-shaped salad, place a small bowl for the vinaigrette in the centre of a larger round shallow bowl or platter. Arrange bite-sized pieces of romaine or other greens in the bowl around the small dish. Top with remaining ingredients, finishing with feta cheese and pecans. Whisk vinaigrette ingredients together and pour into the small bowl in the center of the serving bowl. Serve and drizzle vinaigrette over all just before serving.
