Homemade Thousand Island Dressing
If you like Thousand Island Dressing, here is your warning: tasting this homemade Thousand Island dressing will officially ruin you for all other versions.
We eat this on hamburgers, and salads (of course), dip carrots & celery sticks in it, and I have been known to go to the fridge with a spoon from time to time just to taste it!
This is Thousand Island at its freshest, creamiest best.
I am serious – do NOT make this if you want to fall back on store-bought versions.
You will rue the day Kraft ever decided to desecrate such a wondrous invention.
You’ll need: Chili sauce, mayonnaise, pickle relish, three or four hard-boiled eggs, and some finely diced onion.
Place mayo in a bowl. That looks kind of gross, doesn’t it? Hang in there – I promise the outcome will be DIVINE!
Pour in your onion.
Dice up your eggs and add them in there.
Add chili sauce. I didn’t add the whole bottle – you can go by the recipe for the perfect amount.
Add pickle relish – again, add the amount according to the recipe.
Stir, Stir, Stir!
And Voila! *Chef’s kiss!*

This is how I make My 1000 Island, too. But I add Texas Pete instead of pimientos(which are just roasted red pepper bits). and a little less chili sauce. Sometimes it’s too sweet.
