Ingredients

• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup Ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Sweet Pickle Relish
• 1 tablespoon White Vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 2 tablespoons White Onion, finely minced
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 Hard-Boiled Egg, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and ketchup. Stir well until fully blended into a smooth mixture.

Step 2

Add the sweet pickle relish, white vinegar, and sugar to the mayonnaise and ketchup mixture. Whisk together until sugar is dissolved and ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 3

Fold in the finely minced white onion, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the dressing.

Step 4

Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir to combine, ensuring even seasoning throughout the dressing.

Step 5

Gently fold in the chopped hard-boiled egg, being careful not to break down the egg too much. The egg should be well distributed but not mashed.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into a sealable container. For optimal flavor, refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Serve as desired, over salads, on sandwiches, or as a dip for veggies. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
