Number Of Ingredients 6

1 head cauliflower, cored and cut into florets (about 8 cups)
1 bunch broccoli, cut into florets (about 7 cups)
6 slices bacon
1 shallot, diced small
1/4 cup sherry vinegar
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • Set a steamer basket in a saucepan with 2 inches simmering water. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish. Repeat with broccoli.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook bacon over medium-high until crisp, about 8 minutes, flipping once. With tongs, transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Reduce heat to medium, add shallot, and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Carefully whisk in sherry vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Immediately pour over vegetables. Crumble bacon and add to vegetables; toss to combine.
