"Looking through thePETA website, I found this fun and delicious recipe. Initially the recipe called for regular yellow mustard but I used a Spicy Horseradish mustard that really added a lot of kick! But feel free to use your favorite mustard for the breading part and enjoy your own little concoction!"
