This easy recipe came from the March 2004 issue of Everyday Food. It is quick to put together and a colorful and delicious salad. I prefer to eat it right away, still slightly warm. I think it would be good sprinkled with crumbled feta cheese or with some chicken or tuna for a main course salad. Ingredients:
1 lb broccoli, florets only, steamed until crisp tender |
1 tablespoon dijon mustard |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 small red onion, minced |
coarse salt |
pepper |
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved (i use the small grape or berry tomatoes) |
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed |
Directions:
1. In large bowl, whisk Dijon mustard with red wine vinegar and olive oil. 2. Stir in red onion and season with salt and pepper. 3. Add cherry tomatoes, chickpeas and broccoli; toss to coat. 4. Serve immediately, room temperature or chilled. |
