Broccoli Salad With Black Olives And Feta Cheese

---

Broccoli in a light dijon vinegrette. The black olives and feta give it a unique flavor and since you use the stems of the broccoli there is little waste. I found this at an organice vegetable site. Sometimes i use more olives, personal taste.

Steps

---

Cook broccoli in boiling water for 2-3 min , drain , set aside.

---

Whisk together vinegar , mustard , garlic and olive oil.

---

Combine vegetables and olives in a medium sized bowl , toss in dressing.

---

You can add the crumbled feta cheese now , or serve on top of salad at serving time , i like to add feta at serving time.

---

Season with salt and fresh ground pepper to taste.

---

Salad can be served immediately , or refrigerated until ready to serve , this salad stores well and is still nice and crispy for a few days in the frig.
