Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups bite-sized broccoli florets
  • 2 1/2 cups bite-sized cauliflower florets
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 to 1 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 cups lightly packed fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 lemon, zested
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Place the broccoli and cauliflower in a large bowl. Toss with the beaten eggs to coat evenly. Place the Parmesan in a large tray or baking dish and dredge the vegetables in the cheese, pressing to coat evenly.

Pour olive oil in a large heavy skillet until the olive oil is 1/4-inch deep, about 1/2 cup depending on the size of your skillet. Warm the olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, carefully add the Parmesan-coated vegetables. Do not overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches, if necessary. Let the vegetables cook until a crust forms, about 3 minutes per side. Turn the vegetables only when they easily release from the bottom of the pan. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

Place the spinach in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the spinach with the vinaigrette and toss to coat. Add the Parmesan coated vegetables. Toss and serve.

    i just made this for dinner and it was delicious. I did not use as much oil for the dressing ad the broccoli and cauliflower has alot of flavor and oil feel after draining. This is definitely a great dish warm. I added small salad shrimp as well. Tomorrow I will take it ot lunch cold and see how it tastes. This dish also filled me up rather quickly :

    I like the combination of light and substantial in this salad. The flavors blended really well. I don't usually like frying things but it wasn't too messy.
