BROCCOLI AND ENDIVE SALAD WITH FETA AND RED PEPPERS
Parents appreciate broccoli because it's one vegetable that their children will eat. But what about broccoli for adults? How much plain steamed broccoli do you really want to eat? We rarely base a meal on this healthy food, yet there are plenty of ways to move it to the center of your plate. For main dishes, I am most likely to use broccoli in a salad, a soup or pasta. Those little flowers - the crown of the broccoli is the plant's flower - are like sponges for tasty sauces, dressings and broths. Like other cruciferous vegetables in the Brassica family (kale, collard greens, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and cauliflower), broccoli contains sulfur-containing phytonutrients that have gotten a lot of attention from nutritionists for their potential cancer-fighting properties. It's packed with vitamins C, A, K and folate, as well as with fiber. And broccoli is a very good source of manganese, tryptophan, potassium, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, zinc and vitamin E. In this beautiful salad, the bitter flavor of the endive is countered by the sweet red peppers and broccoli.

BROCCOLI AND FETA SALAD
I took this amazing salad to a barbecue and there was nothing left. If you use herbed and garlic Feta Cheese, omit the 1 clove of garlic or taste and then add as much garlic to suit your taste buds. You can also make this ahead and keep covered in the refrigerator up to a day. This recipe came from one of my favorite magazines "Canadian Living."

Steps:
- Scorch the red peppers directly over the largest flame on the hob for around 5 mins until they blacken, rotating frequently. If you don't have a gas hob, you can use a barbecue or an oven grill on the highest setting. Once blackened, put in a container with a lid and leave to cool.
- Peel the skin off and remove the seeds and any pith from inside. Slice thickly, reserving any juices. Sieve the juices to remove any seeds.
- Cut the broccoli into large florets. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat and fry the broccoli for 5 mins, stirring regularly, until starting to to turn golden brown. Add the onion, garlic, some seasoning and 100ml water, then put the lid on the pan. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for a further 5 mins, stirring regularly.
- Pour in any remaining pepper juices, mix and spoon onto a serving plate. Place the red pepper slices on top and scatter over the feta.

SHEET-PAN BAKED FETA WITH BROCCOLINI, TOMATOES AND LEMON
When baked, feta gains an almost creamy texture, similar to goat cheese but with feta's characteristic tang. In this easy vegetarian sheet-pan dinner, broccolini (or broccoli), grape tomatoes and lemon slices roast alongside the feta until the broccolini crisp, the tomatoes burst and the lemon rinds soften. (Remember, broccolini has a tender, delicious stalk so only the bottom 1/2-inch needs to be trimmed.) Serve this dish over a pile of orzo for a complete meal. If you like, cut the broccolini, feta and lemon into bite-size pieces and toss with the orzo.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees with a rack set in the lower third. On a sheet pan, combine the broccolini, tomatoes, onion and lemon slices with the olive oil and toss. Add cumin and red-pepper flakes, season with salt and pepper, and toss again until evenly coated. Nestle the feta slices into the vegetables. (It's OK if they break apart a little.)
- Roast 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through but leaving the feta in place, until the broccolini is charred at the tips, the stems are easily pierced with a fork and the tomato skins start to blister and break down.
- Serve over orzo or farro. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with the remaining lemon half for squeezing. Top with fresh herbs, if using.
Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp vegetables: The fresher the vegetables, the better the salad will taste. Look for broccoli and endive that are deeply colored and free of blemishes.
- Cut the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly and make the salad more visually appealing.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: Broccoli and endive should be tender but still slightly crunchy. Overcooking will make them mushy and bland.
- Use a light dressing: A simple vinaigrette or lemon-tahini dressing is a good choice for this salad. A heavy dressing will overpower the delicate flavors of the vegetables.
- Add some crunch: Toasted nuts, seeds, or crumbled feta cheese can add a nice crunchy texture to the salad.
Conclusion:
Broccoli and endive salad is a healthy, delicious, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a main course. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
