I halved the recipe to make enough for 2 hearty sandwiches. I, too, add sweet relish (instead of celery & onion) and found it to be a little spicy. Next time, I think I'll leave out the chili powder altogether. Thanks for the posting!

I took this to a church potluck and it was enjoyed. When I first made it, it was a little spicy so I did add about a tbls. of sweet relish and a little more mayo to tone it down a bit. Thanks Amy! Made for the IRON CHEF game.
