Submitted by lets.eat

"This is a sweet and tasty salad that I made for a potluck supper, it was well received by all. For the sweetened condensed milk I used #14062 by Darlene Summers with great success. Cook time does NOT reflect overnight refrigeration."

Made this weekend for my future in-laws' housewarming party, and everyone enjoyed it. I used part of a large sweet white onion, since that was on hand here, and after mixing the sweetened condensed milk, vinegar and mayo for the dressing I chose not to add any sugar. I can't imagine wanting it to taste any sweeter than it did and don't know what difference, if any, the sugar would make to the consistency of the dressing.
