Upping the Fast Food Game with Signature Crafted Recipes

This post was sponsored by McDonald’s as part of an Ambassador Program for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.

Fancy some fresh Guacamole in your burger? Or how about some deliciously crispy onions or Maple Bacon Dijon in your burger?

Recently, McDonald’s has upped its game by introducing their Signature Crafted sandwiches and burgers in the Tri-State area where you can customize your burgers and sandwiches by adding a variety of new and deliciously flavored ingredients.

The weather has been really amazing lately and the warmer weather means more outings, more road trips as well as more picnics.

spring and summer outings

One of our go-to places, whenever we are taking a road trip or a short day trip is to grab a bite from McDonald’s. It’s not only convenient but it’s also something that you will always find at almost all service areas.

I recently tried their Signature Crafted burger and was really amazed at the interesting combinations and sauces that they have introduced like –

  • Pico Guacamole
  • Pico de Gallo
  • Buttermilk Ranch Sauce
  • Sweet BBQ Bacon
  • Crispy Onions
  • Sweet Onion BBQ Sauce
  • Maple Bacon Dijon &
  • Creamy Dijon Sauce

This new and improved menu focusses on giving customers food with great taste, modern choices and real ingredients with zesty, sweet as well as savory flavors.

From their new Signature recipes, I tried their Maple Bacon Dijon Burger. It came with thick cut Applewood smoked bacon and was sprinkled with a sweet maple seasoning as well as a creamy Dijon sauce.

What I liked most about this new line is that they offer you several options to choose from – grilled chicken, 100 percent beef patty or buttermilk crispy chicken. You can also select between Artisan roll or sesame bun and truly customize your burger.

I also chose to get their Chicken nuggets to go along with my burger. Did you know that their Chicken McNuggets are made with chicken not treated with antibiotics important to human medicine?

In the past two years, McDonald’s has taken some really great efforts and makes sure that they serve food with great taste, modern choices and real ingredients by using 100 percent beef and real chicken. 

One more way McDonald’s is making efforts towards giving a better experience to its diners is by –

  • Committing to source 100% cage-free eggs by 2025 in the U.S. and Canada
  • Sourcing milk in its low-fat milk jugs and Go-GURT® low-fat yogurt from cows not treated with artificial growth hormone

I feel these efforts are really commendable by this fast-food giant as they are striving hard towards giving better food choices to their customers. 

Also, did you guys know that you can score a free side of fries or a free beverage just by downloading the McDonald’s mobile app on your phone? 

Have you tried any of the burgers or sandwiches from McDonald’s New Signature Dishes? Which one is your favorite? And if not, do give it a try and let me know your thoughts.

You can also follow them on their Twitter and Instagram to stay updated with the latest deals and ongoing offers.

    I had no idea McDonald’s was doing this! That’s great. Their French fries are one of my guilty pleasures 🙂

    That’s a very lovely post, as always I find out something new about something known. Sounds delicious, Shamira! I think I am not familiar with this new burger. Honestly, I am not that frequent visitor, sometimes I like fish burgers there.

      Thank you for your kind words, Ann. You know I’ve never tried their fish burgers, although my sister likes them a lot ?
