I really just wanted to try the sauce found in this recipe. I steamed the vegetables to crisp-tender and made the sauce on the stovetop as well. That was as quick (if not quicker) than microwaving--less than ten minutes. Making the sauce is easy and gave ordinary vegetables added zip. The dijon mustard imparts a complementary mild flavor--a refreshing change from usual cheese sauces. Thanks, Chilicat, for an uncomplicated and quick sidedish!

I'm sorry to give a low review but our family just did not like this dish. The sauce came out bland and our kids didn't want to eat it. I even used extra mustard and thought that maybe it would become bolder after I cooked it, but it didn't really help much. Maybe it just depends on the Dijon mustard, but I don't think we will be making it again.

Both places are beautiful in their own way, although Arizona is where I learned that the little marshmallows in the Lucky Charms box are actually supposed to be crisp and crunchy, not gummy and all stuck together. What a revelation!
