Ingredients: |
Ingredients: Potatoes - peeled, quartered, boiled and sliced about ½ inch (1 cm) thick
Eggs - hard boiled, sliced thin (I use an egg / mushroom slicer)
Tomato / Tomatoes - coarsely chopped
Green Onion / Onions - thinly sliced, including some of the green tops
Radishes - thinly sliced or finely chopped
Sweet pickles (Bread & Butter or Yum Yum) finely chopped
Optional Extras:
Cucumber - finely chopped
New Carrots - thinly sliced (young baby carrots from thinning rows in the
garden)
When ready to serve mix everything together, pour the Secret Recipe dressing over and mix again.
Secret Recipe Dressing
½ cup / 120 ml. Miracle Whip Salad Dressing (other brands are OK)
¼ cup / 60 ml Sweet Pickle Juice (from above Sweet Pickles)
1 tsp. / 5 ml. White Sugar
Mix together well in measuring cup or jar until all the Salad Dressing
lumps are gone and the mixture is smooth. This will make enough salad for
4 people and I like to make this ahead of time (not more than a day) and
store in the fridge until needed in a sealed container (I put it in a
washed out commercial salad dressing bottle with a flip top lid).

Directions: |
Directions:I like to cut up everything ahead of time and store them in the fridge to be mixed together just before we are ready to eat. I usually store the Potatoes in one bowl, the sliced Eggs in another bowl, the Tomato in a small bowl, the Green Onions & Radishes together in another small bowl or covered container and the Sweet Pickles in a custard cup covered with plastic wrap.
When ready to serve mix everything together, pour the Secret Recipe dressing over and mix again. |

Personal
Notes: Granny's Calculations: 1 medium potato, 1 egg for each person; 1 Green Onion, for every two people; 1 Tomato, 1 Radish for every four people and she always counted the "bowl" as another person just in case someone dropped in unexpectedly. Depending how much you like Sweet Pickles how much you chop up but I find ¼ cup / 60 ml. works well for up to 6 or 8 people.
