A little more work than just using a bag of frozen veggies, but so worth it!!! I used snow peas and broccoli instead. I did think it needed a little more than just salt and pepper so I used some lemon-orange pepper that I had, which gave it a nice little kick. It was simply delish!

This was a big hit at Christmas Eve dinner. Easy to make. The produce store was out of broccolini so substituted regular broccoli.

The one dish I serve at holiday dinners where there are no leftovers. I double/triple the recipe (depending on number of guests. I prepare all the veggies early in the day and put everything in food storage bags. Then throw everything together right before dinner is served. So fresh and delicious!!!!! And a nice respite from the heavier food served

This is a workhorse of a recipe (and I mean that in a good way. I blanche and shock the vegetables as soon as I get home from the market, per the recipe, and then divvy it up, as there are only two of us. The first batch I might dress as Ina does here. The second batch will find its way into risotto. The third I might toss with a lemon vinaigrette and serve cold. Or stir fry.

Fabulous -- so easy because you can blanch the vegetables ahead of time and then saute them just before serving. Great way to cook broccoli rabe, as well.

I took this to a large family dinner with great success. I doubled the recipe as we had a crowd. Did all the prep at home, bagged up the ingredients and warmed it up at the party. Received plenty of compliments as well as a request for the recipe. It's a healthy and interesting combo of veggies. Will make this again.

We never even like asparagus before, but just love it in this dish. The flavors are so subtle, it is just heavenly!!!

I tried this reciepe the day after I saw the show. We had a friend over for lunch, and my wife and friend could do nothing but rave over the meal. It was truly a hit with all of us. Cudos and I will be trying other recipes from Ina.
