Description

This salad includes all the veggies in the original (plus a few extra) tossed with a homemade salad dressing that is just as zippy as the store-bought stuff (but lacks the crazy preservatives).


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups chopped bell pepper*
  • 2 cups chopped cucumber
  • 2 cups quartered cherry tomatoes
  • 2 cups small broccoli florets**
  • 1/2 cup sliced black olives
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp dried chives
  • 1 1/2 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine all of the vegetables (bell pepper, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, and black olives). Stir until combined.
  2. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients to make the dressing (olive oil, red wine vinegar, chives, parsley, lemon juice, basil, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper).
