Crunchy Marinated Vegetables for Two

"Another goodie from Taste of Home magazine. I couldn't find kohlrabi so I just added a couple more radishes. Preparation time is approximate.I poured the cooled portion of the dressing into a measuring cup to make it easier to pour over the veggies.A great make-ahead recipe too."

  1. We found this to be way too sweet. I have to wonder if you meant tablespoons of vinegar, rather than teaspoons, as the amount given was hardly enough to disolve the sugar. Thanks for posting, but this is not a marinade that I will use again.
     
  2. To make this diabetic-friendly I used Splenda to replace the sugar and this turned out great. I love the sweet-sour taste of the marinade. Very versatile for using up those fresh veggies and will be made often this summer. Made for Review My Recipe Tag. Thanks for a winner Burnice!

<p>My favorite thing to do is to spend time with family and friends,&nbsp;especially my two grandsons. Cooking, collecting recipe books and tried and true recipes from family and friends, and all the wonderful cooks here at food.com, is what I enjoy too.</p> <p>My favorite sayings are: &nbsp;Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, and Today is a gift; that is why it is called the 'present'. <img title=Smile src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif border=0 alt=Smile />&nbsp; and&nbsp;&nbsp;Remember yesterday, dream about tomorrow, but live for today. <img title=Smile src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif border=0 alt=Smile />&nbsp;</p> <p>My favorite poem is: <br /><span>Common Things <br /></span>The things I prize of greatest worth, <br />Are just the common things of earth; <br />the rain, the sun, the grass, the trees; <br />The flowers, the birds, the glorious breeze; <br />Clouds that pass, and stars that shine, <br />Mountains, valleys, all are mine; <br />Rivers broad, and open sea <br />Are riches none can take from me. <br />Our God is here on every hand, <br />Upon the sea, upon the land! <br />And day by day my thanks I give <br />That with these common things I live. <br />....Praying Hands</p> <p>My pet peeve is people who spit gum on the sidewalk even if there is a trash bin a few feet away!! I have stepped in 'fresh' gum a couple of times!!&nbsp;</p> <p><img src=http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg alt=/ /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/Other/tagforpage1.jpg alt=/ /></p>
