recipe reviews for:

Bologna Salad Sandwich Spread I

“A girlfriend's mom made this spread years ago for our Teen Club Luncheon back in Iowa in the 50's. I asked her to tell my Mom how to make it. I made the recipe for my kids while they were growing up & they still love it. Sweet relish and eggs round out the flavor of bologna in this simple but delicious spread. Serve it on cocktail toast, or use it in sandwiches. The amount of egg, creamy salad dressing and relish should be adjusted to taste.”

DD loves bologna and eggs so this was right up his alley. I used mayo instead of the salad dressing and added in a few seasonings. Thanks Kumla!

This is very similar to what I love to eat in Germany when I visit family. It's a popular spread for the hard rolls called Fleischsalat (meat salad). Yummy!!!

My mom always made this recipe, but we called it "ham salad". Didn't use eggs, but I might try this next time! Delicious!!

I make this all of the time...but no salad dressing, eggs or relish. To get the best taste, use real mayo, sweet baby pickles and some onion. If you need to give a little sweeter flavor, add a little pickle juice.

This stuff is the best!! Reminds me of growing up as a kid, although we get the thicker bologna and julienne it instead of turning everything smooth. Good as just a salad that way really, overall it's pretty darn good! Very similar to what the local deli makes, which I used to buy before finding this recipe, thanks for sharing.

This tasted pretty good but I felt like it was missing something. Next time I'm going to add some shredded cheese and see how that goes.

I've made this before but my recipe called for cheese, too. I was looking for something similar when I found this one. So, I added the cheese. Good!

This was not terribly well received among my friends. One said it tasted like potted meat. My husband didn't care for it at all. I won't be making again.

I grew up with this stuff! Though for some strange reason, we called it ham salad and not a touch of ham in sight! My mother and grandmother (and me) use sweet gherkin pickles and a bit of onion in addition to the remaining ingredients. My own sons love it and it disappears whenever I get the urge to make it! Which just might have to be now...
