Recipe

• 2 add the mayo and miracle whip.
• 3 taste for seasonings.
• 4 if you want salad moister, add the mayo and miracle whip using the same 2:1 proportions.
• 5 chill the salad for several hours (or up to 3 days), but bring back to room temperature before serving. it tastes better.
• 6 notes: garlic ring sausage is also kielbassa sausage. if unable to find substitute salami and add a cloved of minced garlic.
• 7 miracle whip is very important. the recipe needs it because salad dressing has sugar and vinegar in it and provides just the right combination of mayo mix. i know people may not like miracle whip but please, just this once.
