Very good! I made it twice in one week as I had a lot of broccoli to use. I eliminated the oil and did not really measure the other ingredients, just mixed to taste and served over rice. Husband liked it too, will make it again. It is super quick and easy.

Good broccoli salad! I used twice the amount of broccoli listed in the recipe but kept the amount of sauce the same and it was just right. Also, I only blanched the florets for about a minute and a half because we like them very crisp tender. My husband who usually doesn't like broccoli, liked this very much. Thanks Mirj, we'll be doing this one again!

mmm yum yum! Didn't change a thing. Served this as a side dish. Brocolli and non-brocolli loveer liked this all the same. Thank you, it's a good recipe to keep at hand.
