Perfect! I halved the recipe and used Splenda, dijon mustard (not the grainy kind) and 1 T light mayo. Salt *really* brought out the flavors in this dish. I had some of it on a FlatOut wrap with tuna and it was great (although I will dice smaller if I do that again) and I had some plain and that was great too. I will definitely make this again. I had everything I needed in the house, and it was inexpensive and versatile.

This is very yummy. I did half the recipe and used a granny smith apple. I used reduced fat mayonnaise. I used grainy dijon mustard. Thanks Parsley :) Made for Market tag

Simple and delicious. 1/8 c mayo was plenty. I used 1 packet splenda instaed of sugar.
