Spam and Egg Salad/ Spread
"My roommate when I was a teenager used to make this. It is a delicious salad/spread that we used to put on toast and brown under the broiler. It tastes just as good served cold as a side dish. This recipe allows for many variations on ingredients (such as ham or sausage for the Spam) and would also make a great low carb meal. Prep time does not include hard boiling and peeling the eggs."

I made this exactly as directed, even down to using the Miracle Whip. I found that I preferred it cold, rather than broiled. DH loved it, and asked for thirds. I would maybe like to try to cut the Miracle Whip down a little.....I found it to be a tad too much. Also, even though DH loved it, I found it missing something....an acid? More Pepper? I don't know....but I'm going to play with it since DH loved it so much. Thank you for posting PubRat.

I live in northern Wisconsin and bartend at a very nice supper club that I have been at for 21 years now. I love reading, animals, sciences, the Packers, and of course-cooking. I like to work with fondant and have made quite a few cakes for people around town.
