- ¼ cup Red Wine Vinegar (#280000)
- 2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed Lemon Juice (#1001492)
- 1 Tbsp. Dijon Mustard (#390095)
- 2 tsp. Kosher Salt (#110610)

Directions
- Make the vegetables – Fill a stock pot with water and bring to a boil. Stir in the lemon juice and salt. Fill a pasta basket with the broccoli rabe, cauliflower, mushrooms, zucchini, and squash. Submerge in the boiling water and cook, covered, for two minutes. Remove the basket and resfresh the vegetables under cold running water. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and mix with the pepper strips, artichokes, and olives.
- Make the dressing – In a blender, combine the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix on medium until completely blended. While the motor is running, slowly pour in the oils in a steady stream to make a smooth dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the vegetables. Add the basil and toss well. Chill for at least two hours before serving. Arrange on a decorative platter garnished with fresh basil and lemon wedges.
