Spicy Sardine Dip

"A tiny bit of my Portugese heritage all jacked up with American ingredients. When we were kids, my Dad would gather us kids around and we would share a bowl of this nutty goodness, even though it grossed my Mom out. Now I eat this thinking of Dad, all while grossing my DH out!!"

directions

  • Open and drain liquid from sardines. Place in bowl and mash with the back of a fork.
  • Add mayo, mustard and hot sauce and combine well.
  • Serve immediately with crackers.
  • **If your grocery store has them, purchase sardines canned in hot sauce to save yourself a step. Just add the mayo and mustard and serve!
  • **Per a review, I realized that the mayo/miracle whip may be a bit high for everyone's preferences. I typed it in as a range to better meet so since it's more a matter of your taste in consistency.

  1. quick and easy snack, high in omega 3s. i halved the mayo tho, 4 TBSP seemed way too much, and it was still creamy.
     
  2. Believe it or not, I ate this recipe to as a kid minus the mayo/mustard. Just sardines, hot sauce & lemon juice on salted or unsalted crackers. Classic snack for those who love canned sardines.
     
  3. This is a family classic! Though is sounds odd, it is really very good. I would recommend good old saltines. Funny, my dad shared this delightful treat with me, too! Wink, Wink!
