I haven't try this yet, but I think that would a few ingredients. Sound kind of bland. Has anyone out there try this recipe? I think I could add black and green olives, some chopped hard boil eggs maybe a can of green chilies. I'll let know when I do this. Maybe our next neighborhood BBQ =..= and little dijon mustard to mayo
