APPETIZER BITES: Make many small skewers of meat and serve with the salad in a cocktail glass or on a bread and butter plate for tapas-style dining. The salad includes vegetables and fruits rich in Vitamin C with your meals to boost iron absorption. The oranges, grapes, beets and pomegranate juice in this recipe are clever food combos that do just that. BONUS: These ingredients provide powerful antioxidants too.
