Ingredients & Substitutions

• Bologna - You could substitute hot dogs. However, I would really enjoy this recipe using olive loaf too. You can also make a similar sandwich spread with chicken, or ham salad.
• Hard-boiled eggs 
• Mayonnaise - Miracle Whip Salad Dressing can be substituted.
• Sweet pickle relish - Chopped dill pickles can be substituted if you don't enjoy sweet pickle relish.
• Yellow onion - Sweet onion is a perfect substitution.
• Yellow mustard - Dijon mustard can also be used.
• Fresh ground black pepper
• Optional customization - Feel free to add shredded cheddar cheese or even fresh herbs like parsley and thyme.

How to make it

To make this old fashioned bologna salad recipe you first need to mince the bologna and eggs into small pieces using a meat grinder, or finely dice with a sharp knife.

Next, stir together the ground bologna, eggs, mayo, sweet relish, onion, mustard, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl until the bologna mixture is well combined.

For the best flavor, let the sandwich spread mixture meld for a couple of hours, but it can be served immediately.

Storing Leftovers

Leftover bologna salad sandwich spread can be stored for up to one week in an airtight container in your refrigerator. This is a perfect meal to make in advance to enjoy for easy lunches throughout the week.
