Ever since I was little, I’ve had this sort of “obsession” with mustard. I’m talking about the standing-in-front-of the-fridge-eating-mustard-out-of-the-jar kind of obsession. Sounds weird, I know, but what can I say?!

I remember back home in Spain, my parents would buy this amazing grain mustard, that came in a big, fat ceramic jar with a cork as a lid. Authentic, imported directly from France (our neighbor). Man, was that good. I used to eat it right out of the jar back then too, but my mom also made the most amazing dishes with it: from mustard crusted rack of lamb, to simple, yet incredibly flavorful salad dressing. Luckily for me, here in the US I can still enjoy the same high quality, authentic mustard, thanks to Maille.

As I grew older and became a vegetarian, that mustard obsession grew even stronger. Which makes sense if you think about it: mustard is a great way to infuse flavor into your favorite recipes, and with so many varieties to choose from, you can always keep it fun and exciting. So if you think it’s just a condiment, think again!

The recipe we’re sharing today is the perfect example.

This veggie burger is satisfying, super nutritious and packed with flavor. Made with two different kinds of authentic Maille Dijon mustard, loaded with chickpeas, beets and quinoa. Topped with creamy avocado, and, of course, a little extra mustard for good measure
