My mom made this for every family and neighborhood gathering. It is tart and tangy. I do not include how much mustard and miracle whip to use, because it differs from time to time, just make sure that there is more mustard than miracle whip. Sometimes it takes a few tablespoons and other times almost a small jar of both.
