With or without orange juice
celery salt
black pepper
V8 juice works very well
Finely chopped fresh tomato
Finely cut lettuce, soak lettuce in red wine vinegar for a couple of
minutes
ranch dressing for part of the mixture is nice
fresh jalapeņo
strategically spaced bits of bacon is nice
bread make all the difference, lightly toast, or don't toast, lightly
mayonnaise
