    Do you ever get bored by the standard mayo, ketchup, and mustard routine of condiments for hamburgers and sandwiches?

    Or do you ever want to really increase the flavor profile of something like chicken salad or even veggie dips?

    DIY Garlic & Herbed Tomato Sandwich Spread

    Then you have to give this garlicky, tomato & herb spread a try!

    Ingredients for Tomato sandwich spread: Mayo bottle, ranch dressing bottle, jar of dried tomatoes, fresh tomatoes

    Ingredients:

    • Mayo - whether homemade mayo or commercial - use your favorite
    • Tomato Powder - from home dehydrated herbed tomatoes or even if you keep tomato powder in the pantry. By the way, tomato powder has so many uses, including making tomato soup! It's worth saving you summer tomatoes for, or even investing in a freeze-dried option.
    • Favorite herb seasoning blend. I use a generic Italian blend, but any would work
    • Garlic Powder

    Instructions:

    1. Mix well.
    2. Allow to meld for an hour.
    3. Serve as a sandwich spread.
    4. Refrigerate for up to five days in an airtight container.

    Tomato Powder - Use regular tomato powder with the additional seasonings, or your dehydrated tomato chips with the additional garlic.

    The uses are endless, but here are a few basic ways you can use this spread to increase the flavor profile of some of your favorite foods!

    • Hamburgers
    • Aoli dip for fries and veg
    • Mix into chicken salad
    • Fish when broiling

    Substitutions

    Substitute the mayonnaise with one of these options for other tasty dishes!

    • Ranch dressing and use as a salad dressing or veg dip
    • Sour Cream for a veggie dip or topping on tomato soup or chili
    • Cream cheese for bagels - this is where a chunkier powder will shine!

      I dehydrated orange beef steak tomatoes, this summer. I tried them on grilled cheese sandwiches. They added such a depth of flavor, I thought I was tasting tomatoes for the first time. It was like tasting the sweetness from the sun and the tartness of the soil. We ate them as chips with instead of on our sandwiches. Thank you for introducing me to dehydration.
