DD's Recipe
Remember that ingredients in this salad is done by how much you want in it there’s no set way to do it. I make it this way because I love it!

Turkey Salad


1 or 2 large cans Turkey packed in water – drain the water and shred into a bowl
1 to 2 celery stalks – sliced thin
1 to 2 slices of onion – diced or chopped
Sweet Relish – 1 tablespoon and add more to taste once you put the mayonnaise in.

Hellman’s Mayonaise – enough to make the salad moist not too wet. (The best way is to add a tablespoon at a time so you don’t put too much in. Also I add a little pepper for taste.
You can eat this on crackers, toast, stuffed in pita bread, wrapped in a tortilla, or simply all by itself….mm mm good!

I do my EGG Salad the same way but instead of turkey I use 3-6 eggs and more or less celery and onion.

My Addition

I added 1 tablespoon of honey mustard. I felt that added a sweet tinge that made the salad all the more tasty.

Reason why Turkey Salad

V likes American food.
In our conversation he mentioned that he detests anything east of Indian food like Thai, Chinese, Malaysian where he could smell the chili powder.
According to him the food looks like as if the meat is mixed with oil,chili powder and water.
(No offense meant to anybody who likes eating such food)
In fact I am an ardent lover of Thai food.
But I like to make what V likes to eat.
Our tastes are quite contrary.

Both of us are growing tired of eating out and eating Indian food. We wanted to eat something very healthy and light. Thats when DD's recipe came to use.
