    List of Ingredients




    12 ounces bite-size broccoli florets
    1/4 cup olive oil
    2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice (juice from 1 lemon)
    2 tablespoons minced chives
    2 buds garlic, minced or pressed
    1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
    Salt and freshly ground pepper
    1/2 cup seeded, finely chopped red bell pepper
    1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
    2 oz (about 2 Tablespoons) raisins
    1/4 cup dry-roasted sunflower kernels

    Recipe




    Loosely pile broccoli on a steamer rack. Cover and steam over high heat
    until broccoli is barely tender when pierced, about 5 minutes. (If you use a
    pressure cooker, allow the steam to just barely start, turn off heat and
    remove pressure lid. Allow all pressure to release before attempting to
    remove lid.) Pour cooked broccoli into prepared pan of cold water to cool
    quickly. Drain well in a colander and allow to finish draining on paper
    towels.

    Prepare dressing. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, chives,
    garlic, dry mustard, red bell pepper, and half of the cheese; beat with a
    whisk until well blended. Season dressing with salt and freshly ground black
    pepper.

    To dressing add broccoli and raisins, mix lightly to coat well with
    dressing. Sprinkle with sunflower kernels and remaining cheese. Serve
    immediately. 6 Servings.
