DIRECTIONS
FOR DRESSING: Combine all of the dressing ingredients in a bowl and stir thoroughly. Set aside for 30 minutes to allow the flavor to develop.

Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Blanch each of the vegetables, one at a time, until just tender, 1-2 minutes each. Quarter the squash after blanching.

Combine the vegetables in a large bowl, add the extra virgin olive oil and salt and toss well.

Just before serving, pour the dressing over the salad and toss thoroughly.
