This Thousand Island dressing is a pink, creamy mix of mayonnaise and ketchup that comes together in ten minutes with pantry staples. Sweet pickle relish and a spoonful of sugar balance the white vinegar, while finely minced onion adds a gentle bite. Blending makes it silky, and a short rest in the fridge lets the flavors settle. Spoon it over green salads or spread it on sandwiches.

Instructions

Put the mayonnaise, ketchup, white vinegar, sugar, pickle relish, minced onion, salt and pepper into a blender.

Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and an even pink colour, with no streaks of ketchup left.

Scrape the dressing into a bowl and cover it. Chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

If you do not have a blender, whisk everything together in a bowl until it is smooth and evenly pink.
