My family especially loves this at the end of summer, during the peak of tomato season. Ingredients:
5 fresh tomatoes, peeled and sliced |
1 red onion, thinly sliced into rings |
2 pounds fresh broccoli, cut into florets, cooked |
dressing: |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/2 cup red wine vinegar |
3 tablespoons fresh minced basil or 1 tablespoon dried basil |
1 tablespoon fresh minced parsley or 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes |
1-1/2 teaspoons salt |
pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. In a large shallow dish or 13-in. x 9-in. pan, layer tomatoes and onion along one side; place broccoli on the other side.
2. In a small bowl, combine dressing ingredients; pour over vegetables. Cover and chill for several hours, occasionally spooning dressing over vegetables. Serve vegetables on lettuce-lined platter if desired. Yield: 6-8 servings.
