"Pink Princess Dressing"
Green Goddess - move over - There's a new kid in town - Pink Princess! My hubby and I met in Wheaton, IL in 1992. One of our favorite places to go for a date was the Wheaton Cafe. I only ordered one thing from them - Turkey Pita with their version of Thousand Island. This Thousand Island wasn't any ordinary Thousand Island - It was pink and perfect! I have tried and tried to recreate that taste "fit for a queen" and I think I have come up with something pretty darn close. I call it Pink Princess Dressing!
This is a bit on the sweet side - which I love!
1 cup mayonnaise
3 Tablespoons Ketchup
3 Tablespoons Sweet pickle relish
8 slices canned beets
2 Tablespoons beet juice from the can - may add more for thinner dressing - so save it
Add all ingredients to food processor and pulse. Continue to add beet juice to reach desired consistency.
Perfect Princess Dressing!
This sandwich is certainly Pretty in Pink!!
ReplyDeleteI am putting beats on my shopping list RIGHT NOW!!
ReplyDeleteThat dressing looks so good!
ReplyDeleteBeets! What a great recipe! I bet it tastes wonderful!
ReplyDeletePaul and Jamie - Thanks for stopping by. I hope you like the dressing as much as I do. For me - It brings back wonderful memories as well!
ReplyDeletethat looks great! i love beets in salad and this seems like a great way to add that flavor.
ReplyDeleteOhh so cute, I like the title too "Pink Princess Dressing" Cheers,
ReplyDeleteThat looks so vibrant and colourful and good.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever had the Salad Express Fiesta/Salsa Salad (it's the salad in a bag at the market)? They have a sour cream salsa dressing that my son loves. I can't figure out how to recreate it, so I'm wondering if you have any sour cream salsa dressing recipes! I hate that I have to buy the salad in a bag JUST because that's the only dressing he'll eat!
ReplyDeleteSara - That Sour Cream Salsa dressing sounds wonderful. I will have to try that. If I try to whip up the concoction I will definitely blog about it! Thanks for stopping by.
