2  large hard-cooked eggs, cooled under running water
1 Tbs fat-free sour cream
2 tsp sweet pickle relish
2 tsp reduced-fat mayonnaise
1/4 tsp Dijon-style mustard
1 pinch salt, (optional)

Recipe for Egg Salad Sandwich:

Cut each egg in half. Carefully remove the yolks. Discard one yolk. In a small bowl, mash the remaining egg  yolk. Add the sour cream, pickle relish, mayonnaise, mustard, and salt (if desired). Stir  to mix well. Stir in the celery. Chop the egg whites and stir them into the yolk mixture.
Spread the mixture on each slice of bread. Serve as open-faced sandwiches. If desired, garnish with a light sprinkling of paprika. If you love egg salad but have cut it from your meal plan because of the cholesterol, try this zippy recipe, which discards half of the egg yolks.  With all of the taste of traditionalegg salad and far less fat, it's one of this cookbook author's favorite sandwiches.
