1. Try adding Pickle Relish |
|
A touch of dill and some onion flakes and mustard (ground)in the salad dressing (Miracle whip) or Mayo. Place on leaf lettuce and bun.

8. please no *miracle whip* |
|
That stuff sucks and its GM'd to boot just like Best Foods mayo (the only REAL mayo.!). :puke:
The black olives really do make it tasty - just look for something else to make it all stick together ... :D

Will serve with bacon on toast... MMMM

7. Some black pepper and a dash of tabasco |

28. And now I have to ask you this: |
|
Do you know why a comma was inserted into the title of that movie? A comma wasn't originally there, you see, and if you start thinking about it you'll figure out why they added it in there... :evilgrin:

10. My egg salad is never the same twice |
|
but it's always good. I throw in
eggs (duh)
miracle whip, regular or light -- NOT mayo, too little flavor
some sweet relish, green onions, Dijon mustard, Lawry's salt
ham or bacon if I feel like it
I use one of those hand-cranked food processor thingies; everything goes in, a few turns, and voila! I only use enough Miracle Whip to hold things together, I like it chunky.

I like eggs, Best Foods, and a bit of sugar. Whole grain bread and a nice leaf of lettuce.
However, if I were going to jazz it up, I'd use dill weed, black pepper, fine dice of red bell pepper, maybe some chopped celery leaves and a dash of pepper sauce.

Preferrably Patak's Indian curry paste. If you don't have that, then I imagine just about any curry paste or powder would work fine...I also use the Patak's in my deviled eggs... yummy.

Hell, I love it so much, I'd almost be tempted to put it in breakfast cereal. :9 I actually have been using it all summer long as a base for my barbecue marinades... a little soy sauce, some curry, garlic, Emeril's essence (got the recipe from the web, and keep a container of it handy at al times..), shallots, dijon and whatever else strikes my fancy...

It is the west coast's name for Hellman's mayonnaise. For some reason, east of the Mississppi it is called Hellman's, and in the west it is Best Foods.
on edit: even the jingles are the same "Bring out the (Hellman's/Best Foods) and bring out the best"

25. I know I am weighing in late, but here goes..... |
|
Take some eggs and boil them. Get some real mayonaise, green peppers, salt, pepper, cayenne, onions and potatoes. Lots of potatoes. Boil the taters and then add some of the rest to taste!!!!!
