  • Reviews

  • “I added red wine vinegar, stuffed green olives, a touch of garlic powder and a fistful of curry powder.Good stuff.”

  • “Delicious – this reminded me of a salad my Mom used to make. I used Miracle Whip becuase we like it better for salads. Love the kick the horseradish gives it. This is a great summer salad to enjoy in the heat.”

  • “Very good! Nice clean taste. I used both shrimp and imitation crab. I printed it out to place in my cookbook. Will certainly make this again. Thank you.”

  • “This was delicious. I had to omit the green pepper, because my daughter won’t eat them and only had red onions. I added a half of an english cucumber and didn’t use the radishes as they were optional. I increased the horseradish as I felt it needed a little more kick.:)”

  • “This recipe was good. I used less onion & green pepper”

  • “This was sooooooooo good.”

  • “Horseradish! What a great idea! I’m adding this to my cookbook. (No wonder mine never tasted right!)”
