Oh yes, I was curious... The minute I saw this Retro Bologna Dip or Spread I just had to try it:@) The original post calls it Bologna Salad and uses it as a sandwich spread. Now, if I'm gonna have a bologna sandwich, I'll simplify life and add slices to bread:@) ~But~ if I'm interested in making a dip for football or holidays parties, well, then I'll break out the food chopper! The best part, one 8 oz pack of Oscar Mayer bologna at Dollar Tree approximately makes a party size 1 1/2 C of dip. Gotta love that. This is a highly customizable dip folks, like celery and relish? Add more. Grandmom make something similar with Miracle Whip? Go ahead and use that... Anything goes, and I think a little pimento would be pretty too.
I estimated a third of a batch with 8 oz of bologna.
Leftovers? Would probably be good on a bagel for breakfast:@)
