INSTRUCTIONS
Steamed cauliflower florets, broccoli florets and carrot slices are mixed
with olives and tossed with a sun-dried tomato and oregano vinaigrette in

water; drain well. Steam broccoli until just crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
Rinse with cold water; drain well. Steam carrots until just crisp-tender,
