I think you'd like it. The Dijon mustard on the meat doesn't overwhelm
it. In fact, I'm not a huge fan of jarred mustard but it works well in
this application. It makes the breadcrumb coating adhere to the
tenderloin and the coating gets nice and crisp and the meat stays very
juicy and tender.

I ran across that recipe in an old Cooking Light magazine in the 1980's.
Been using it ever since.
