- Ingredients
- 2 cups roughly chopped Cauliflower (florets)
- 1 cup pitted Kalamata Olive (drained)
- 2 Tbsps fresh lemon juice
- ¼ tsp Dijon mustard
- ¾ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ¼ tsp dried Basil
- ¼ tsp dried marjoram
- ¼ tsp minced dried onion
- 1 pinch dried, minced garlic cloves
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ½ cup crumbled Feta
- 2 Tbsps roughly chopped, fresh parsley
- 3 Tbsps Pine nuts
- freshly ground Black pepper (to taste)
Preparation steps
1.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower and olvies.
2.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, mustard and seasoning. Slowly add the oil, and whisk until the dressing emulsifies. Pour the dressing over the cauliflower and olives, and toss gently to coat. Set aside and allow the cauliflower to marinate for 15 minutes.
3.
In a small nonstick skillet, set over low heat, arrange the pine nuts into a single layer. Toast, stirring frequently, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the pine nuts are golden brown and fragrant. Remove the pan from the heat and cool slightly.
4.
Add the feta and parsley to the cauliflower mixture, and then stir in the nuts. Season to taste with black pepper. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
