Meet the Cook: Whenever I have company, I like to be able to just pop the food on the table. So this recipe's a real favorite of mine. I got it from a friend who made it for our church get-togethers. My husband and I raised four children; today, we have seven grandchildren. In our small town, farmland surrounds us on three sides, and we face the Columbia River on the other. -Lois Chapman, Ridgefield, Washington Ingredients:
3 packets unflavored gelatin |
1 cup water |
2 cups mayonnaise |
12 hard-cooked eggs, chopped |
1/2 cup chopped celery |
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper |
1/2 cup sliced green onions |
1/2 cup sweet pickle relish |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
thinly sliced fully cooked ham, optional |
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, soften gelatin in water for 5 minutes. Stir over low heat until gelatin dissolves. Remove from the heat. 2. Whisk in mayonnaise. Stir in eggs. Add celery, red pepper, onions, relish, salt and pepper; mix well. Pour into a 8-cup mold coated with cooking spray. Chill overnight. 3. Unmold onto a serving platter. If desired, use ham as a garnish around the sides of the mold, or place several pieces in the center if using a ring mold. Yield: 8-10 servings. |
