  • 2 cups broccoli florets, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 cup cauliflower, cut into bite-size pieces
  • ½ large red bell pepper, cubed
  • ½ large yellow bell pepper, cubed
  • ½ large green bell pepper, cubed
  • 1 medium brown or red onion, half circles
  • 1 medium carrot, thick half circles

Marinade Dressing

  • 2 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • In a large bowl, mix all the marinade dressing ingredients. Set aside.

Once cooled drain and pat dry with a towel.
