Like others I reduced the celery salt as we are very salt conscious--- used 1/8 teaspoon celery salt. Very nice tasting recipe. Thank you Sharon for sharing.

This was perfect for lunch! I made one change. Instead of using onion salt, I used onion powder and less of it. I really liked the addition on the celery seeds. It was served with vine ripened tomato slices, pickle spears and crackers. This will be made again! Thanks so much for posting, Sharon!!

Great tasting salad, I followed this exactly, and served it perched atop a lettuce leaf as the previous reviews suggests. Following the recipe, the onion salt is a bit high, so I am thinking the recipe author might mean 1/4 tsp. of onion salt. The celery seed and relish just tasted great, mellowed with the yellow mustard and mayonnaise a perfect combination. Thank you for a wonderful salad, (I threw some chopped green onions on top) and can hardly wait to make again. Made for *I Recommend* February 2009.

I'm giving this a 5 star rating based on ease of preparation, unique and satisfying flavor. I did read about the potential saltiness, so I opted for using onion powder versus onion salt. It tasted great. I always use either celery salt or celery seed and relish in my egg salad sandwiches, so I had a good hunch I'd like this. The onion powder, yellow mustard really made the flavor special. I ate this as is, no bread, and it made for a perfect no-carb lunch! Thank you.

This was so salty that I had to throw the sandwich out. I'm giving it 2 stars b/c I could kind of tell that without all the salt it would have tasted good. I will try it again with onion powder and a dash of salt and review again...
