  1. Good and easy way to serve brocolli and green beans. This was very good with 4 ingredient Sweet and Spicy Chicken Wings recipe#27995. Thanks Kree for posting.
     
  2. I used just the sesame ginger vinagirette part of this recipe, but it was easy to make and worked great in my recipe. I made a tilapia salad, and this dressing suited it perfectly. I don't always like ginger, but this dressing was nicely flavored and a good consistency. I will use it again when I need a sesame ginger dressing.
     
  3. This was very easy and the broccoli looked awesome. Unfortunately, the green beans (frozen) were very overcooked and looked and tasted like it. We could only detect a hint of the dressing but is likely due to the amount of vegetables. I would probably add some toasted sesame seeds also.

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career. Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
