Made this for dinner tonight to go along with our roast chicken. I thoroughly enjoyed it however; the sauce received mixed reviews from the other family members who were home for the night. DH did not care for it at all, oldest daughter thought it was very good, and my son said he would eat it again but he prefers his broccoli with just grated cheese on top. I will tuck this recipe aside for serving when company comes as I enjoy fixing things out of the ordinary. Made and reviewed for the Oct. 2011 AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.

Thanks so much for posting a different and very good way to eat broccoli. I have for years veered away from white sauces as was hit or miss for me when I made them but since I learned how to do in microwave they come out perfect every time so really enjoyed making it as knew it would turn out just right. Flavors melded together quite nicely and nothing overpowered anything else. Daughter announced it was a keeper for sure.

Very nice quick and simple side dish. We had tonight with recipe #346711 (I ended up adding some of the sauce to the chicken and it was wonderful). The Dijon sauce is mild and creamy without being overpowering. I didn't have any lemon, so I didn't add it, I also left the sugar out simply because I forgot, but I don't think it was needed at all. I will be making this again and plan to add it to the standard broccoli rotation since we eat it at least 1-2 times a week anyways.
