3 Tbsp. lemon juice
4 Tbsp. mayonnaise (low fat)
1/2 tsp. salt

Comments: This recipe came from an author friend of mine Lawrence Johnson, Sr. - The Budget Gourmet. Larry has written 4 novels, so far, Escape 2 Earth, Terror on Telderan, Planet of Doom and Return 2 Earth. As well as being an author he holds a cooking class for healthier eating. This is one of his recipes. When I made this dish I did, of course, make a change or should I say an addition. I added about 1 tsp. of horseradish which made a great dish even greater. This is also a dish you can tone down or spice up. I cut the garlic and onion powders down to 1/2 tsp. each and did ad an extra Tbsp. of mayo. Plus I used penna pasta instead of elbow, for no real reason. This would also be good with a sprinkle of Old Bay. Think With Your Taste Buds when playing with this recipe.
