I love garlic, but one bite was all I could handle of this recipe. Way too much garlic. I don't even know of any suggestions that would help this recipe. I am planning on making a pasta with the leftover broccoli, hoping that some of the garlic fury may be tamed.

This side dish was my contribution to a Father's Day lunch. It was a huge hit. I did do a little tweaking though. I'm not a big fan of raw broccoli, so I steamed the florets from 1 1/2 bunches of broccoli for 3-4 minutes, then drained and rinsed them well with cold water. For the dressing: I blended 2 rounded tsps of minced garlic, 1/2 tsp of salt, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar, 2 Tbsps Dijon nustard, and 2 tsps honey (helps cut the tartness a bit). I poured this over the cooled broccoli and chilled for about 3 hours. I'm not a fan of Parmesan cheese, so I left it out. Next time, I'll try adding a few thinly sliced green onions to the broccoli before adding the dressing. This is a great recipe that I will definitely make again!

Very good if you like salty and tart. I will reduce the salt next time as it was too salty for my taste. I also blended the dressing in a blender and it was quick and easy. Prepared mid-morning and served for dinner. I am in the process of collecting different side dishes as I'm tired of the same stand-bys. This will go into my "keeper" file.

WAY, WAY too much salt...be careful! And I usually love garlic, but, thought it had too much garlic too. However, super easy & still liked the oil base (instead of mayo). Will make again, but, with less salt and garlic.

Very tangy marinade, a good balance to the broccoli. I used regular yellow mustard instead of dijon, and only marinated 1 1/2 hours. Very flavorful and tangy. I would make again, probably adding some other vegetables to the mix (cucumbers, peppers, or peas would be nice).

Did not like this. I think the vinegar ruined it or maybe bec there were way too many strong flavors going on. :/

I'm not a big fan of raw broccoli - but I love it cooked, so I tried this on steamed broccoli. It was delicious!

Yum, this was great. I would definitely make again.I used my broccoli raw as stated. I did reduce the salt to just under 1tsp. I also used 1 huge clove of garlic(prob. equal to 3cloves) used cider vinegar because thats what I had. I didnt do the paste thing with the garlic I just put all marinade ingreds in the blender until smooth, then poured over the broc in a ziploc bag. Turned bag every so often. Topped with fresh grated parm. I used grey poupon mustard.

I wasn't impressed with this recipe. I used balsamic vinagrette, and swaped the vinegar and oil measurments -- I just didn't like the taste. I think there was just TOO MUCH sauce. I like the taste of broccoli and when I used the sauce I couldn't taste anything but balsamic garlic onion. Next time, if there is a next time, I'll cut all the amounts in half.

I loved this recipe. I did steam my broccoli slightly and only used 1 tblspn of evoo instead of 1/3c. I left out the salt and put my garlic through a garlic press instead of making the paste. I loved the dijon mustard taste. Great way to eat broccoli. Will make again! Served with Italian Sausage Peppers and Onions from this site.

Changed the recipe a little: blanched the broccoli, and added some home grown baby arugula (rocket) leaves to make a pesto type dressing. subbed apple cider vinegar, and 86ed the cheese. If I were to use cheese, it would be a Parm or Romano, but I was trying to keep this lighter. Made dried bread croutons to toss with, and had to hide the dressing from myself so I would quit dipping them and eating them. Spicy and garlicky this way; not for the faint of heart (but oh so delicious!)
