This is an excellent vinaigrette for just about anything!!! I cooked some carrots and broccoli, let them come to room temp (made these a long time before dinner) then served with the vinaigrette over them. Excellent way to "do ahead" some of the dinner. Glad you posted this jonesies. -
This is excellent! The mustard vinaigrette goes very well with the broccoli, and I've tried it on a few other veggies with great results too. Thanks! -
This was so good! I loved how easy it was to put together, and it was delicious. I used Dijon mustard instead and it turned out great. Thank you! -
That mustard vinegairette is awesome! It really complimrnts the broccoli well. My mustard mixture didn't stay on top of the broccoli as in Redsie's photo; I'm not sure why. Nevertheless, it's a great broccoli recipe that I'll be using again. Thanx! -
This was simple and great!! Loved the mustard with the broccoli! Will make it again for sure! Thanks Jonesies!

I am lucky enough to be "living the good life". I have the most wonderful husband and two terrific teenage daughters. We reside in Central Pennsylvania where we have the luck of having four full seasons. Between my husband and myself, we have two full time jobs, three businesses and one part time job. We are very busy, but try to take it easy when we can and enjoy the wonderful life we have been blessed with. Future plans include moving to an inherited 45 acre farm in a beautiful valley surrounded by mountains. This will occur if and when our DD's leave the nest. We love to travel and have enjoyed seeing all of North America and a large portion of the United States together.
Since discovering Zaar, I have to say my life has become more flavorful! I have learned that it's easier than I thought to have an organized, well-planned and yet creative and fun kitchen! I love the features of Zaar, but especially enjoy the people. I have become addicted to the forums and now love taking photos of the food I prepare. I am officially a Zaar junky!
I've also started taking pictures of most of the recipes I prepare...Here are some of the pics I've taken of dishes that are available at Zaar:

I love most foods. My only dislikes are green peppers and coffee...weird, huh? Been trying to eat and cook healthier for the children and to help control DH's high cholesterol.
I enjoy...no...CRAVE anything cheesy, salty and crunchy. Needless to say I dream about nachos in my sleep!
