MAYOMUST

Running out of salad dressing for salads is not something I really worry about. But, I did pass by a bogo and did not even think about buying it. Bottled dressing is not enough to worry about these days.

However, when I saw a bottle of salad dressing, his favorite, Italian dressing, I realized my favorite, Ranch and his Italian were almost gone. I would just use Miracle Whip on mine. Last year, I bought a new product that we had not used--Heinz MAYOMUST saucy sauce. Yes, it is a mixture of mayo and mustard. It was reduced.

When I mentioned we were both almost out of our favorite salad dressing, he said he could use mayonnaise or even mustard. Mustard on a salad??? He assured me he would like it, so I remembered the Heinz MAYOMUST.

Have you ever tasted this? Do you like it? Since I like Miracle Whip and Mustard on hotdogs and in cole slaw, I might be able to use this on either. However, it has the feel of mayo on my tongue, so I probably will not use this often. However, I will not buy more bottles of dressings unless I find them at less than retail price.

Monday night, I seemed to sleep well. I awoke before 7 am on Tuesday,  just lay there until about 9 am. Monday night before, he was setting his clock to watch sci-fi movies at 6:15 am Tuesday. I just lay there to avoid them...lol. Finally, at 10 am, the last one was over. I did watch the last 15 minutes of THE THING. ugh

I did nothing except read blogs and finally eat lunch. About 1 pm I was exhausted. My nap lasted until 5:30. I was shocked. This is allergy season, so I am exhausted, sneeze, and cough. I can even have an elevated temp. Anyone around me would think I have Covid19. I don't but can imagine being chased from the grocery, with rolls of tp thrown at me like I was a pariah.

Dinner on Wednesday night will be redone leftovers. Since there was lots of "soup" liquids left with some meat, few beans, and little kale, and no carrots, I am remaking it. I am putting in almost as much kale as was in the original batch. I will add more of the ham to Tommy's part. I have two wedges of potato left from another meal. One wedge will go in Tommy's beans and I will eat the other. I think I fished out all the carrots. So, in order to keep from boiling the soup for a long time, I will either leave out more carrots or boil them separately and add them to the soup.

I just do not want more of that ham...yuck. I think slices of ham were trimmed or the trimming from a whole ham was sliced into strips. It's just too fatty for my mouth feel, taste, or health.

Gotta go, getting ready for 7-9 pm Modern Family!

Tried MAYOMUST?

  1. My friend makes a BLT salad and puts a little mayo on it and mixes it up. Lettuce, tomatoes and crispy cooked bacon. Doesn't take very much mayo. I have never tried the bottled mustard and mayo mixture. I sometimes mix a little of both and dip a grilled cheese sandwich in it. That's pretty good. Take care.

    1. Crystal,
      I do things with Miracle Whip and mustard...lol. You know me and Miracle Whip. That's interesting about the grilled cheese sandwich.

  2. I have 2 jars of mayo in the pantry! No miracle Whip though- I only buy it when my brother visits. I'm getting globe tomatoes in my produce delivery today unless they have to substitute- that Thursday delivery has kept me home so no complaints. I still have Brussel sprouts and zucchini from last week that I never got around to using. I'm trying to think of something 'special' to make for Easter Sunday. What are you having? I'd love some fresh shrimp and a piece of carrot cake- only in my dreams. Stay safe.

    1. I am going to make a green bean casserole because Tommy loves it. I have a piece of ham in the refrigerator that I am going to thaw. I have about 8 lbs of carrots, that or sweet potatoes. I never made the pecan pie at Christmas, so probably that. The beauty of this meal is that I can make it all the day before. Oh, maybe slaw, too.

      That is great getting produce delivered to your door. I may have a delivery from Publix when milk is reduced. Maybe not. Tommy is willing to pay for it.

  3. I don't like to buy premixed combinations. I like putting muster, ketchup and mayo on a burger, but wouldn't buy ay of the two combined. I just picked up two dressings as the ranch was running low and they were 2/$3, so got a ranch and a honey mustard since we are doing so many chicken things and I might make homemade pretzels.

    1. Sam,
      Normally, I would not either, but the mayomust was too cheap to pass up. You found a good price!

    1. Chef,
      It is MW all the way for me. However, once I substituted MW for mayo and it was horrid.

  5. I have a salad dressing bottle; I make my own dressings now. Alas, none of the "M" as my spouse is adverse to it.

    1. Urspo,
      I should make dressings. But, mayo never touches my salad!
