Try this Banana and Pomegranate Salad recipe serve with spicy grilled prawns (in this picture I made with mango,cucumber and passion fruit) http://vegeyum.wordpress.com/2008/03/16/pomegranatesalad/
Pomegranate is excellent in all things Middle Eastern and some North Indian stuff. It's also great in salads in place of dried cranberries - like this one: http://raspberryeggplant.blogspot.com/2010/01/pear-pomegranate-and-pistachio-salad.html
Your can make a Mexican style salad. Julienne jicama, add orange segments or slices, a little green or red onion, some cilantro. Dress with lime juice and salt or lime juice mixed with a little oil and sour cream and salt. Sprinkle generously with pom seeds. Refreshing. Great alongside chile or enchiladas or with something grilled.
tip: to get the seeds out of pomegranate with less mess, fill a clean sink or bowl with water. Hold the pom under water, make an initial cut or two with a knife, then with your hands break open the pom and release the seeds. They will float to the top and you can skim them off.
