And I’m here to share the second half of my mustard obsession with you. Raise your hand if you’re just like me and would gladly faceplant into a mustard-filled recipe.
As promised, today I’m sharing four of my favorite dishes using French’s Classic Yellow Mustard that can elevate your picnic game! Here, we have a few modern twists on some of the classics and what I really want to show you is how you can whisk some of this wonderful mustard flavor into any dressing or sauce or marinade to up your summer menu game!
The best thing about these is that they are all simple. Some can be made ahead of time, but regardless they are all perfect for a relaxed evening when entertaining friends. You don’t even have to depend on an exact recipe for any of these. Whisk a spoonful of this delicious mustard into a dip or drizzle will work almost anywhere! Nothing fussy, just really, really good food.
Creating A Cheat Sheet For Easy Entertaining
First up, my personal favorite. Grilled or roasted baby potatoes drizzled with chimichurri. I ADORE chimichurri – I mean, that’s probably and understatement. And this time, I took my favorite recipe (and all those fresh herbs), added a drop of mustard and combined it all for the most delicious, tangy, slightly briny, bright and herby chimichurri drizzle.
This stuff is herb GOLD. You can use it like I do here on the potatoes, but also on steak, chicken, salads, roasted vegetables – I mean, the list goes on! Super fantastic, I tell you.
It’s no secret how much we love kale salad here. A few years ago when I first learned to make massaged kale salads, our dinner game changed. I think we ate a version of kale salad for dinner once a week for over a year. Because the thing is, when you massage the kale, it not only takes on a perfectly chewy texture, it also releases some of the bitterness of the greens.
Delicious Summer Recipes For A Crowd
Topped with cherry tomatoes, salt and pepper, this is an AMAZING starter salad summer. It has so much more flavor than you’d anticipate!
Next up, I used a drop of French’s Classic Yellow to make a tangy greek yogurt dill dip for a summer crudité platter! This is my go-to easy appetizer if people drop in and I have some veggies on hand. Plain greek yogurt, a spoonful of mustard, salt and pepper, a touch of mayo and a huuuuge handful of fresh dill.
Not only does this make for a delish dip, you can use it on salads too. Toss all of those dip seasoning packets for this bowl. You’ll want to eat it with a spoon!
Easy Summer Chicken Recipes
A few years ago, I never would have even entertained the idea of grilled cabbage. I’ve completely fallen in love with it (to be honest, it all started with tacos…) and now? It’s a staple on the grill. It gets smoky and charred and if you’re into the crunchy texture like I am, you’ll flip.
But what really takes it over the top is this chili mustard dressing. Ooooooh it is GOOD. It’s spicy and tangy with a hint of sweetness. It’s everything you want in a bowl even if you didn’t realize it!
I absolutely love the way that you can swirl French’s right into these dressings and dips and sauces to make each dish more delicious. It’s super easy and just gives it that extra oomph!
