Sensational Marinated Vegetables

That's right! I wanted a marinade for raw, semi-peeled veggies, so I worked on it for a few weeks, trying this and that, and I'm very pleased with the final result. This makes a very delicious and different sort of side dish for supper. So far, my friends and family who have tried these veggies have universally opted for second helpings. Potatoes carrots, endive, onions, mushrooms, cauliflower florets, Brussels sprouts, and broccoli all work well. Prep time includes marinating time. I hope you like it too!
