[Guest guest]

I made this for dinner tonight and it is wonderful. Candy sent it in on the

Vegetarian group and I wanted to share it with you.

Broccoli Mandarin Orange Salad

 

5 cups broccoli florets

2 tbsps. almonds

2 11 oz. cans of mandarin orange sections, well drained

1 orange, grated peel and juice

5 green onions, chopped

3 tbsps. white vinegar

1 tbsp. sugar

2 tbsps. olive oil

1 T. Braggs Liquid Amino's

salt and pepper, optional

 

Steam broccoli florets in covered saucepan for 3 minutes only. Remove

quickly and rinse with cold running water until broccoli is no longer warm.

Do not cook further. Place in serving bowl and chill, covered.

Meanwhile, in a medium-sized bowl, combine almonds, drained mandarin

oranges, grated peel and juice from orange, green onions, and remaining

ingredients except for salt and pepper. Toss gently and allow to stand at

room temperature for about 15 to 30 minutes.

When ready to serve, pour marinated orange mixture on chilled broccoli and

toss very gently. Season to taste with salt and pepper, if desired, and

serve.
