This was great. It's 104 degrees here right now and nothing but a salad was possible. I liked that this didn't even require that I turn on the stove. I made a few changes based on what I had on hand and they all worked fine. Instead of the yogurt I used half yogurt and half fat free sour cream. I ended up adding just a little more mayo for the taste but not much since I loved the recipe being so low fat. I also substituted Vidalia onions for the green onions and feta for the cheddar. It was terrific--very adaptable. Thanks so much for the recipe, mapaklenk.
