My sister gave me this recipe at a family gathering one year, and I've been making her colorful, crisp salad for holiday get-togethers, dinner parties and potlucks ever since. This festive salad travels well and holds up beautifully on the buffet table, so it's ideal for making ahead. Serve it in a clear bowl so everyone can see the pretty color combination. Ingredients:
1/4 cup canola oil |
1 tablespoon plus 1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice |
1 tablespoon plus 1-1/2 teaspoons white wine vinegar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon sugar |
coarsely ground pepper |
2 cups thinly sliced cauliflower |
1/2 cup sliced pimiento-stuffed olives |
1/3 cup chopped green pepper |
1/3 cup chopped red pepper |
Directions:
1. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the first six ingredients; shake well. In a salad bowl, combine the cauliflower, olives and peppers; drizzle with dressing and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Yield: 6 servings.
