Recipe: Potato Salad (low fat using chicken and peas)

Salads - Potato, Pasta
POTATO SALAD

6 medium potatoes, boiled, peeled, cut in cubes
1 cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced (optional)
4 hard boiled eggs (use whites only), chopped
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup peas, fresh (or frozen peas, thawed) (optional)
FOR THE DRESSING:
3/4 cup fat free mayonnaise
3/4 cup fat free yogurt
2 Tbsp mustard
2 Tbsp relish
1 Tbsp chopped fresh chives (optional)
1 tsp garlic powder (or 1 clove fresh garlic, minced)
Salt and pepper (to taste)

Mix everything together (I find it easier with potato salad to mix the dressing part together first, then add the rest and toss well.) Chill well before serving.

RECIPE NOTES:
Ornish's original did not include the chicken, yogurt, peas and chives. Other fresh veggies (broccoli, green beans...) would probably also be good in this. I really couldn't taste the chicken. Next time I'd probably add 2 breasts given the amount this makes. Other fresh herbs could be used as well. A bit of curry would also have been good. (Wish I'd thought of that last night.)
