Classic Olivier Salad Shaped Like a Little Pig
A playful take on a holiday classic. Olivier salad is hardly a new idea, but a good tradition never really goes out of style — so let's bring it back to the holiday table. Instead of piling it into a deep bowl, serve it on a flat platter shaped like a cheerful piggy. The salad is inexpensive, filling, and delicious, and dressed up this way it looks especially inviting.

- This version is made small, and you could even portion it out into individual servings — though that's not the best route if you're expecting a crowd. Chop everything as finely as you can, or the salad won't look neat. When you cut the sausage, set aside a couple of pieces for decorating. 1. Prep the ingredients: wash the potatoes and boil them in their skins; let them cool, then peel. Hard-boil the eggs, cool them in cold water, peel, and separate the yolks from the whites. Cut the pickle into small cubes and cut the potato the same way. Cut the cooked sausage into cubes, and do the same with the egg yolks. Grate the egg whites on the coarse side of a box grater. Drain the canned peas. 2. In a bowl, combine the potato, egg yolk, pickle, peas and sausage. Dress with mayonnaise, season with pepper, and stir. Set aside. 3. Now color the egg whites: use gel food coloring (a little beet juice works just as well). Put the whites in a bowl, add a drop of coloring, and mix. Done! 4. Spread the salad onto a flat platter and shape it into a round mound. Cover the surface with the pink egg whites. Cut a nose and ears from the reserved sausage, and use two olives for the eyes. That's it — pretty and tasty!
