This honey-mustard dressing with a hint of horseradish is the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and spicy. It's great on salads, sandwiches, or as a dipping sauce for vegetables.
Honey mustard is a classic dressing that's loved by many. But what if you could add a little something extra to give it a bit of a kick? That's where this recipe comes in. I've added just a touch of horseradish to the honey mustard, and it makes all the difference. The horseradish adds a subtle sharpness that balances out the sweetness of the honey and the tanginess of the mustard. It's the perfect way to add a little bit of excitement to your next salad or sandwich.
