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?
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.
ReplyDeleteCrystal,
DeleteI do things with Miracle Whip and mustard...lol. You know me and Miracle Whip. That's interesting about the grilled cheese sandwich.
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.
ReplyDeleteI 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.
DeleteThat 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.
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.
ReplyDeleteSam,
DeleteNormally, I would not either, but the mayomust was too cheap to pass up. You found a good price!
I have mayo for potato salad, pasta salad etc
ReplyDeleteI have miracle whip for the other stuff and sandwiches or salad dresses
Chef,
DeleteIt is MW all the way for me. However, once I substituted MW for mayo and it was horrid.
I have a salad dressing bottle; I make my own dressings now. Alas, none of the "M" as my spouse is adverse to it.
ReplyDeleteUrspo,
DeleteI should make dressings. But, mayo never touches my salad!
