This sounds like a great low-fat egg salad. Recipe from The Diabetes Snack Munch Nibble Nosh Book by Ruth Glick. Cooking time does not include time for hard-boiling the eggs. Comments from the book: If you love egg salad but have cut it from your meal plan because of the cholesterol, try this zippy recipe, which discards half of the egg yolks. With all of the taste of traditional egg salad and far less fat, it's one of this cookbook author's favorite sandwiches. Ingredients:

1 tablespoon nonfat sour cream |
2 teaspoons sweet pickle relish |
2 teaspoons reduced-fat mayonnaise |
1/4 teaspoon dijon-style mustard |
1 pinch salt (optional) |
1/4 cup celery, finely-chopped |
2 slices whole wheat bread, reduced-fat |
paprika, for garnish (optional) |
Directions:
