Harry & David's Pepper and Onion Relish?????!
Answers: Does anyone have any recipes using this (like the dip they make at the store using cream cheese)? I received a jar as a gift and would like some ideas on how to use it.
Here's a recipe:
Ingredients:
1/2 jar Harry & David's Pepper Onion Relish
8 oz cream cheese
Chips, cracker, or veggies
Instructions:
Soften cream cheese in microwave for 30-45 seconds.
Add relish and mix together with hand mixer until creamy.
Serve chilled with chips, crackers, or veggies.

or: mix it with softened cream cheese and crushed pineapple to make it as a dip or spread.

Gulf Coast Club Sandwiches
These sandwiches are full of flavorful ingredients. Spiced shrimp are cooked and layered in this triple-decker sandwich with onion, bacon, chicken, and a pepper relish mayonnaise.
Ingredients:
Spice Mix
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon brown sugar
4 tablespoons ground paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
48 medium shrimp, peeled and tails removed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2/3 cup ONION-PEPPER RELISH (available at Harry & David's or specialty shops)
12 slices toasted bread (good quality white bread)
1/2 medium sweet onion, thinly sliced
1 chicken breast, cooked and sliced horizontally into very thin slices
12 slices bacon, fried to desired doneness
Method
In a small bowl mix together the ingredients for the spice mixture. Place cleaned shrimp in a glass bowl, making sure that they are reasonably dry. Toss with 3-4 tablespoons of the spice mixture, saving the remaining mixture for future use. Cover and chill up at least 1 hour or until needed. When ready to prepare, heat a 10 inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and butter. Melt butter to sizzling point and add spiced shrimp. Saute until shrimp are curled, 3-5 minutes. In the meantime, mix the mayonnaise and onion-pepper relish in a small bowl. Spread 4 slices of toast with mayonnaise mixture. Top each slice with a layer of shrimp. Spread 4 more slices of toast with mayonnaise mixture and place on top of the shrimp, spread side down. Spread top side of these slices with mayonnaise mixture. Layer these slices with onion slices, chicken slices and bacon strips, trimming bacon to keep the stacks neat. Spread the last 4 slices of toast with mayonnaise mixture and place top the sandwiches, spread side down. Cut sandwiches diagonally once, and then again, creating triangles. Secure each triangle with a toothpick, if needed.
Number of servings: 4
get a cook book lol
To make the dip, you just mix it with cream cheese :)
I've only had it once, and we used it on sort of a version bruschetta (small french bread toasts, fresh mozzerella and relish) and added it to a chicken salad. It was fabulous as a seasoning in the chicken salad.
You could probably turn it into some sort of salsa
