This is a delicious way to use leftover roast beef. Feel free to change the amount of mayonnaise to moisten to your taste.
Instead of making sandwiches, serve the spread with crackers for a party and offer chopped red onions in a separate dish.
Ingredients
- 1 pound roast beef (cooked)
- 1/4 cup onion (coarsely chopped)
- 1/4 cup celery (coarsely chopped)
- 1/2 cup pickles (drained bread and butter)
- 1/2 to 1 cup mayonnaise
- Optional: 1 tablespoon pickle juice (or to taste)
- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1/2 cup red onion (sliced, for topping)
- 6 leaves lettuce (for topping)
- 12 slices wheat or white bread
Steps to Make It
-
Gather the ingredients.
-
Put beef and onion, celery, and pickles through a meat grinder with the coarse plate. Alternatively, mince the ingredients or process in a food processor until evenly chopped.
-
Transfer the minced beef and vegetables in a bowl and add 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, onion powder, if using, black pepper, and salt. Add more mayonnaise and some pickle juice to moisten as desired.
-
For the sandwiches, toast the bread, if desired, and then spread with a little butter or mayonnaise. Add lettuce leaves and then spread a layer of the beef spread over the lettuce. Top with sliced red onion.
-
Enjoy!
Tip
- This roast beef spread also makes a delicious appetizer spread. Spread it on crackers, large croutons, party rye slices, or melba rounds. Top canapés with very thinly sliced or minced red onion or olive slices.
