This recipe came from my sister.  Thanks, Rita.

1 bunch fresh broccoli
Boiling salted water
1/4 lb. fresh mushrooms
3/4 cup pitted olives, drained
1 cup cherry tomatoes
 
Trim flowerets from broccoli.  Drop broccoli  into boiling salted water for 1 minute, or just until they turn bright green.  Drain. 
 
Trim mushroom stems to 1/2 inch.  Combine broccoli, mushrooms, olives, and cherry tomatoes in bowl.
 
 
Dressing
 
1/3 cup olive oil or salad oil
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
 
Measure all ingredients into a small bowl.  Whisk until blended.  Pour dressing over vegetable mixture.  Turn gently to coat vegetables.  Cover and refrigerate 3 hours or more until ready to serve.
 
Makes 4 servings.
