This is a great veggie side dish for your next pot luck. Just be sure to plan ahead. You need time to blanch the veggies and give them time to cool. And then, give the flavors time to blend.
1 lb broccoli florets
1 lb cauliflower florets
1/2 lb green beans (trimmed and sliced)
1 cucumber (seeded and diced)
1 dozen cherry tomatoes (halved)
1/2 cup of your favorite Italian salad dressing
1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cauliflower florets and cook for 2 minutes. Add the green beans and cook for one more minute. Veggies should be tender crisp. Drain well.
Place vegetables in a large serving bowl and refrigerate until completely cool. Add cucumber and tomatoes. Toss to mix. Add dressing and cheese. Toss again and allow to cool for 1/2 hour to 1 hour before serving.
