Pomegranates

pomegranates are popping up everywhere right now!  they are becoming increasingly desired and can be bought whole, seeds only and various percent of juice.  100% pomegranate juice is more expensive than most juices.  there are several variations of juice and price range.  for most recipes 100% juice should be used.  pomegranate will spice up everyday eats.  here are some suggestions:
guacamole:  add seeds for a sweet crisp texture
salads and vinegrettes: use juice in dressing, seeds make great garnish
fresh lemonade:  2/3 lemonade, 1/3 pom juice, slice lemon cirles and pom seeds
cranberry sauce:  add seeds or use juice in combination with cranberries
holiday stuffing: mix in seeds just before serving
