New world spamanero salad

7 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 each Tin Spam
2 eaches Eggs; hard-boiled
¼ small Onion
2 eaches To 4 Habaneros; de-seeded, de-stemmed, any color or heat, as you like! I use the red for color enhancement
¼ cup Crushed pineapple
x Salad dressing,
(NOT mayonnaise), or
Aoli; (greek-style garlic/ egg/olive oil mayonnaise)

Directions

ALSO ADDED LATER

Chop Spam (after pouring off the slime), onions, eggs and Habaneros in a blender, food processor, Spam, -uh I mean- Meat grinder. I recommend fine/puree or when Spam is unrecognizeable.

Mix in the Pineapple (can use small chunks for crunchiness, or sweet pickle relish for those who don't care for pineapple).

Add Salad Dressing until a smooth consistency is reached (aoli can be used for those who like a hint of garlic).

Eat as dip, (serves more people), or as a center piece in a bed of lettuce (serves two Texans)* or perhaps serve with a Tuna Salad version and see which one receives the greater number of ..umm..

remarks.

Serves 6-8 (or two Texans*)

Greetings, Chile-Craniates: Dan and Dave Anderson have met the minimum posting requirement threshold and thus, opened Spamdora's Box. I would not necessarily say that this pink palate plaster qualifies as "animals I have et", but rather the Trial by Torture for the Gastro-Intestinal Team Olympics. I received a few suggestions and recipe improvements after I posted this originally: Crazy Coyote recommended Champagne, (not from the Spam Can, but in a more romantic setting) and a shift to the green-side of the epicurian equation with the use of the pickle-relish in lieu of the Luau Pineapple approach.

Luis "Burnin' Love" Ayala thought that with a few additional spices, that it would resemble Mexican Mortadela, and that I should "can it".

I have to agree that anything would improve the ..er.. unique texture, and await further revisionary opinions from y'all. May the TCS, the reverends Cardinal Begg and holeyniss Rael, and untold lurkers of ChileMundo witness that: I hereby submit, for the Spirit Of the Season, and my remaining 0.39 penance points for mentioning the _S_ word without a proper Chile fix: (the above recipe).

Bony Appetite Y'all! ;^)
