Homemade Honey Mustard Sauce

5 from 1 vote
The one sauce worth keeping in a jar in the fridge. It comes together in five minutes with four things you already have, and it turns a plain chicken breast or a bowl of greens into something you'd order out. Use a sharper mustard if you want it to bite back.
