A Taste of Tradition: Bologna Salad

What makes this recipe shine is how effortlessly it comes together. There’s no stovetop fuss or complicated steps—just a few ingredients and a food processor. In minutes, you’ll have a smooth, rich spread ready to serve. The combination of savory bologna, creamy eggs, tangy pickle relish, and mayonnaise creates a balanced flavor that appeals to both kids and adults.

Begin by preparing the eggs. Place them in a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a gentle boil. Turn off the heat and let the eggs sit for about ten minutes. Once cooled, peel and roughly chop them. Cut the bologna into chunks to make blending easier.

Add the chopped eggs and bologna to your food processor, followed by sweet pickle relish and mayonnaise. Each ingredient plays its part, creating a creamy texture with just the right touch of tang without overwhelming the palate.

Pulse the mixture until it reaches your preferred consistency—silky smooth or slightly chunky. Transfer to a bowl and chill briefly to let the flavors meld. Serve on fresh bread, toasted buns, or with crackers and vegetables. Simple and satisfying, this bologna salad proves that comfort food can still shine with minimal effort.
