Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh lemon juice and Dijon mustard will give the sauce the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemon juice, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to use a good quality brand.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Make the sauce ahead of time: The sauce can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 3 days. This makes it a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
  • Serve immediately: The best way to enjoy this dish is to serve it immediately after it is cooked. The vegetables will be at their peak flavor and the sauce will be warm and creamy.
