Fleischsalat Auf Bremen (Meat Salad)

"When I was in the Army the shopette had this salad every Friday. We could not wait for Fridays so we could get it to eat while we played Pinochle with our "Aircraft Recognition" playing cards (this way we could call it training). The salad is made with odds and ends of deli meats and cheeses with some pickles thrown in for good measure! Hopefully, your supermarket sells the ends of deli meats and cheeses as mine does. This way it only costs $2.99/lb rather than $6.99 and up. Use whatever meats you can get, but one of them really should be a salami for it's spiciness."

  1. I loved this salad!!!! I made one change though - I cut back on the mayonnaise and added Dijon mustard. Mayo and salad dressings are not a favorite and so I used the mustard to give it a bit more flavor. The meat combination is perfect. I am thinking next time of adding a few chopped green olives. MMMMMMMMMMM!!!!
