Ingredients

½ lb Smith's gourmet bologna
½ lb Swiss cheese
16 oz whole dill pickles
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon pickle juice
1 teaspoon onion powder or add fresh, thinly sliced onions to taste
2 tablespoon Lowensenf mustard more or less to taste
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil

Optional

parsley or chives for garnish, fresh or dried
2 tablespoon mayonnaise or sour cream for creamier texture

Instructions

Slice bologna, Swiss cheese, and pickles into thin strips and place in a medium sized bowl. (Be sure to reserve pickle juice for the dressing.)
In a small bowl, mix together vinegar, pickle juice, onion powder (or onions slices), mustard, and grapeseed oil to form a dressing. Add mayo or sour cream if desired.
Pour dressing over bologna, cheese, and pickles and gently toss to coat.
Garnish with parsley or chives if desired.

Notes

Let marinate for 10 minutes before serving for best flavor.
If using a different meat other than bologna, be sure the packaging specifies that it is fully cooked or cured and safe to consume right out of the package.
