Bull's Mediterranean salad

In my family we have several 'go-to' salads, one is a delicious Mediterranean salad with broccoli, chickpeas and tomatoes. My mother found this in 'Food everyday' (a cookbook by Martha Stewart)

The original recipe

So heres what you need:
(serves six)

1 pound broccoli
1 table spoon of Dijon mustard
2 table spoons red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 small red onion, minced
course salt
fresh ground pepper
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained rinsed


1) cut the florets from the broccoli (reserve the stalks for another use). In a large pot filled with a steamer basket, bring 1 inch of water to a boil. Add the broccoli in a single layer. Cover; steam until crisp-tender (about 5 minutes).

2) In a large bowl, whisk together the mustard, vinegar, olive oil and minced onion; season with salt and pepper

3) add the tomatoes, chickpeas and broccoli; toss to coat. serve chilled or at room temp.


So I hope you guys like this salad it's DELICIOUS!
