Trying NEW French’s® Dijon Mustard With Chardonnay

I was recently sent a free sample bottle of French’s® new Dijon Mustard With Chardonnay to try in exchange for my honest opinion, compliments of Crowdtap.  I love all different kinds of mustard, so when I found out about this new Dijon mustard with chardonnay, I was excited to try it with various types of recipes.  I love to cook with different wines and thought that this would be a great way to kick my recipes up a notch and give them a new level of flavor.  Sure enough, this mustard did impress!  Along with the bottle of mustard, I received a recipe card and immediately made the Deviled Eggs recipe.  The eggs were delicious!  My entire family loved them, including the kids.  The mustard has a nice creamy flavor with a touch of chardonnay and horseradish. 
 
My next recipe was Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Butternut Squash With Candied Dijon Sauce.  It was DELICIOUS!  The original recipe called for carrots, but I substituted butternut squash. 
 
This is the recipe if you are interested in making it:
      
1 lb. fresh Brussels sprouts, cleaned and cut in half
2 cups cut carrots
2 Tbsp. olive oil
2 Tbsp. butter
1/4 cup FRENCH'S® Dijon Mustard
2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed orange juice
1 Tbsp. maple syrup
1/3 cup dried cranberries        
Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut  off the brown ends of the Brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves. Mix them in a bowl with the carrots, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Pour them on a sheet pan and roast for 35 to 40 minutes, tossing twice. Roast until tender on the inside. Melt butter in saucepan over medium low heat. Stir in mustard, orange juice, and maple syrup. When vegetables are ready, pour sauce over them and mix in cranberries. Bake for 5 minutes.


It has been fun trying all sorts of appetizers, main dishes and sides with this new mustard.  It's also great just by itself as a dip (I enjoy dipping my egg in it in the morning).  And I love that it's made with all natural ingredients, no thickeners or fillers and no high fructose corn syrup.
