Asparagus With Honey Mustard Sauce

[Guest guest]

This recipe complicates something I make frequently. For a honey-mustard

sauce I just mix together equal amounts of Dijon and honey. I combine less

than 2 tablespoons each for a package of steamed frozen vegetables or a

bunch of fresh broccoli. Kathleen
