This was a nice and simle side to prepare with dinner, quite tasty too!! :-) I think that the mustard and dill were a bit iffy to some, but I guess thats what happens when you try to serve something YUMMY!! to people who usually eat their veggies plain...and out of a can *blech*. hehe Thanks for the great recipe and the note about toasting almonds! That helped!!!
