Broccoli And Cauliflower Salad

This recipe is great! I have just made the salad half an hour ago and I cannot stop taking little spoonfulls of it! To the recipe as described I have just added a little fresh garlic (two mid-size cloves). I am going to serve it on top of Greek style flat pita bread.
