Bologna Salad

What does a couple in love do with a 2 pound chunk of deli bologna?
They make bologna salad, of course.
Ha!
Johnie and I both had a craving for bologna salad. 
He told me how his mom used to make it,
and I told him how MY mom used to make it.
It's always good to instill competition in a healthy relationship.
So as we approached the grocery store deli together
we were after one thing:
1 pound of chunk bologna.
The clerk dug out her chunk of bologna,
weighed it,
and told us that it weighed 2 pounds.
At the same time....
"We will take it!"
We took it home,
cut it in half
(sliced bologna for sandwiches is good),
and created our bologna salad with the 1 pound chunk.
 We used our Kitchen Aid meat grinder attachment.
I wish I would have gotten a picture of it for you.
We had a lot of fun grinding that bologna.
I don't really have a recipe for you.
But I can give you ideas on what we threw in.
After we ground the bologna was sent through the grinder
(while the grinder was still running)
we sent through
(approximately)
3 TBS. dill relish
2 TBS sliced green olives.
With everything in the mixer bowl we added:
(no measurements, just to taste)
a little mustard
a little ranch dressing
and mayo.
Stirred until all was combined and creamy to our liking.

Yes!
We ate bologna salad for a week.
It's probably best if you make this for a picnic or party.
It makes a lot!

See Ya'all Soon!
