Equipment

  • 1 Food Processor

Ingredients

  • 1- pound ring bologna
  • 4 hard-boiled eggs chilled and peeled
  • 1/4 cup sweet pickle relish
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon capers drained

Instructions

  • Slice and remove the natural casing from the ring bologna. Cut into large chunks and pulse in a food processor. - Don't over puree. You can use a knife for this task, but a food processor will expedite the process if you prefer a finer texture.
  • Similarly, chop the hard-boiled eggs into small chunks. You want them to be roughly the same size as the bologna pieces for uniformity in the spread. I bring my eggs to a rolling boil in cold water, cover and take off the heat. Let sit for 9-10 minutes and then chill in ice water.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped bologna, hard-boiled eggs, sweet relish, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, capers, salt, and pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Taste the salad spread and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more mustard for a tangier flavor or extra salt and pepper to suit your taste preferences.
  • Once the spread is thoroughly mixed and seasoned to your liking, cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
