We like thousand island dressing but don't eat it that often so I don't usually keep it on hand - it takes us forever to go thru a whole bottle of store-bought and I end up having to pitch it. I make this easy homemade version for the times we do want it - like on grilled reuben sandwiches and leftover corned beef salad, or just 'cuz it sounds good.
- 1/2 cup mayo (I use light, gotta save where I can!)
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- pinch of minced onion or onion powder
- pinch of garlic powder
- pinch of coarse salt
- a couple dashes of Tabasco, to taste, if you want the dressing a little spicier
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl, adjust seasonings as desired. Cover and refrigerate for an hour or so before serving.

| a grilled rueben (corned beef, sauerkraut, swiss cheese on rye bread) needs thousand island in my book! |
 |
| any leftover corned beef and sauerkraut from the sandwiches becomes a delicious salad with the addition of baby greens, shredded swiss cheese, and chopped dill pickles, drizzled with homemade thousand island dressing. |
