We went to eat at Bennigan's last night, so before we left, I flagged down our waitress and asked her about the "fire-roasted salsa and sweet pineapple pepper cream" dipping sauce they use on their southwest eggrolls. (We bought a big box of them from Schwan's and I've been dying to try them -- but wanted to wait until I had that recipe.) I've looked online for that sauce recipe at just about every copycatrecipesite, and tried several search-engine queries, and always came up empty-handed.
She went back to the kitchen to check, and came back out with the answer -- mayo, salsa, and crushed pineapple! Never in a million years would I have guessed mayo as the base-ingredient -- I was thinking more along the lines of cream cheese and condensed milk. I don't have exact measurements, so I'll have to play around tonight. If anyone's interested, e-mail me, and I'll let you know how it turned out (and how much I ended up using for each of the ingredients).
ooh, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE southwest eggrolls!!! yummy yummy yummy!
