Ingredients:
1 Pound broccoli cut in bite-sized florets
2 Teaspoons capers drained, rinsed and chopped
2 Tablespoons vinegar, red wine
1 Head lettuce, Boston
Directions:
In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 1-inch of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Add broccoli to boiling water, cover and cook for 1 minute, or until florets are crisp-tender.

With a slotted spoon, transfer florets into a colander, reserving cooking water, and refresh under cold running water for 1 to 2 minutes. Keep water in pan boiling.

Add carrots to boiling water, cover and cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until crisp-tender.

Add carrots to broccoli and refresh under cold running water 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and turn into a medium-sized bowl.

Combine oil, vinegar, pimentos, capers, salt and pepper in a small bowl and beat with a fork. Pour dressing over vegetables and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Wash lettuce and dry in a salad spinner. Line a serving platter with lettuce leaves and cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed.

Remove vegetables and platter from refrigerator. With a wooden spoon, toss vegetables to recombine with dressing and spoon mixture onto lettuce lined platter.
