Alternative Uses for Shrimp Cocktail Sauce?


Bronze Post Medal for All Time! 170 Posts

I have four bottles of cocktail sauce that I purchased at a cheap price. I bought so many because I thought my daughter could use them. I was wrong, she doesn't want them. My husband and I use them when we have shrimp, but that is not that often. I can't return them, I threw away the receipt. Does anyone have any ideas how they can be used? Thank you.

Add to nacho chips and cheese, warm in microwave or oven.
Add to meatloaf recipes.
Add to cream cheese and make dip.
Make sweet n sour sauce by adding orange marmalade or sweet juices and bake on pork or beef.

Cocktail sauce is basically ketchup with more spice to it. you can use it for fries or hamburgers, or any kind of fish besides shrimp. My hubby likes it with tilapia!

I use a can of shrimp, the kind you find next to canned tuna at the grocery store, and add it to a thing of cream cheese. Make it into a ball and spread the cocktail sauce over it. Dip with Ritz crackers, yumminess!

Mix one bottle with 32 oz of grape jelly, heat slowly over low heat until melted, throw in some cocktail wienies or small meatballs and heat through, great appetizer or party snack.

It's tasty as a stand alone dip for veggies like celery and jicama too. :-)

It is delicious with sausages; makes a nice change from HP or Ketchup.

It's a delicious add-in to tuna salad, or as a sauce for any kind of fish.

I put them on hashbrowns, or any type of eggs in the Am OMG it added the horseradish flavor with a pop. A new twist on even sunny side up eggs.

People look at me funny but really don't knock somthing before you try it.
Someone Betty Crocker had a deviled egg recipe I did it one morning because I ran out of ketchup and boom the flavor was a perfect marriage. Then more tang flavor the better, sweet tang and runny eggs YUM. I call that a Bloody Mess!
But a slice of toast mops it up real good.
Hash Browns with sauce, sausage and runny eggs with sauce with 2 slices of toast with strawberry jam on them.
I use the Heinz stuff but the louisiana is real good too.

honestly you can use it on anything you just put Ketchup.
Homemade is even better because you can add more horseradish.

Place an 8 ounce block of cream cheese on a plate top with cocktail sauce and then place a small can of crab meat on top Serve with your favorite crackers. Always a hit.

I had four containers of cocktail sauce --- boy was it hot with horseradish!! But I put it into several ice trays and will get a block out from time to time for soup, or other uses.

Will last a few months and will not kill me with the heat!

Try adding it to meatloaf. The horseradish zing will be mellowed by the ground meat and the binder you use. I always add rolled oats to mine. Hamburgers are another idea.
