i do that with my mac & cheese too. hubby hates mustard, swears he can always taste it in anything, but nearly 40 years & he's never discovered the touch of powdered mustard i add to mac & cheese, macaroni salad dressing or anything else

I'm glad I'm not the only one that sneaks things my DH doesn't like into foods. If he doesn't know it's in there, he'll eat it. I once fixed frozen squash and told him it was sweet potatoes. He didn't know the difference. I think it was a Green Giant product but I haven't been able to find it again. The color was the same as sweet potatoes.

Laughing! 
My DML always had to have Green Giant peas when she visited. Said she could tell the difference! So at the first meal I served them, kept the empty can under the sink, 2 weeks later when we had peas again they were the store brand. I hid that can, put the old can on the counter. When I asked if the peas were OK, she said yes, she could always tell Green Giant. My husband nearly choked trying not to laugh.

Add a pinch of cayenne or smoked paprika with the mustard powder to further enhance the flavour. It does not make it hot, just gives additional depth to the sauce. Works well in cheese biscuits too.
