Ingredients
- 1 pound frozen mixed broccoli and cauliflower, or use fresh
- 4 ounces kumquats, about 10 - 12 (use more or fewer according to preference)
- 10 black olives, preferably Kalamata or other flavorful kind
- prepare vinaigrette dressing: ( or use purchased vinaigrette )
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper 
 
Small and citrusy, kumquats add real zing to these rather bland vegetables. This is also good
using all broccoli or all cauliflower, but the blend provides more variety in color and flavor.
 
Directions

1

  • Bring 2 cups water to boil in a saucepan. Add kumquats, return water to boil and boil
    for about 30 seconds. Remove kumquats and cool in cold water. When cool enough to handle, slice
    into thin rounds, removing seeds.
  • If you're not using prepared dressing, mash or press garlic
    and mix well with olive oil, vinegar and salt.
  • Cook broccoli - cauliflower mix according to
    package directions. While vegetables cook, chop olives.
  • Drain vegetables, pour vinaigrette
    over, add olives and kumquats. Mix gently. Serve warm, room temperature, or cold.
