Ultimate "Egg" Salad
From: Trish Carr

Here's how I modified the recipe from Diet for a Small Planet.
Basically, I omitted a few things and added some of my own; I can't imagine a salad like this without pickle relish, I didn't happen to have any sesame seeds when I made it, I liked more mayo -- you know, the basic cook's prerogative.
Anyone interested in the original just needs to check page 315 of the 10th anniversary edition of this cookbook.

It's really delicious, and it's easy to throw together.
A perfect vegetarian lunch choice.
The recipe says it makes 4 to 6 servings, but I think 10 is more like it.
MasterCook gives the calorie count as 217 per serving, but I used a lowfat, eggless mayo that isn't in their ingredient list, so that calorie count is a little higher than this recipe actually contains.
I'm guessing about 125 calories per sandwich, as I use it, and I stuffed my sandwich pretty full, about 1/2 inch thick.
