Broccoli - Caulifower Salad

When I was participating in a small group from church, we had a potluck once a month. I always took a salad and the salad depended on what was in season and what was on sale. My now deceased friend, Sheila, asked how I always had a different kind of salad? The answer is that I love fresh food and especially salads.
I recently made this salad, and it was to die for. It is not my recipe, but it is delicious. I have been thinking that one thing I might add would be black olives.
