In fact, we offer this dish daily in JO's Kitchen Cafe, where it's won our male customers' seal of approval again and again!

NOTES : If you have a large strainer on hand, it's easy to blanch veggies. Just put them in the strainer; once the water's boiling, lower the strainer into the water. When the cooking time is up, run the veggies, still in the strainer, under cold water (or immerse them in a bowl of ice water).

This is from WW Simply the Best:

One 1-lb bag of shredded cabbage & carrot blend
2 apples, cored and diced
1/4 c raisins
1/4 c reduced calorie mayonnaise
1 tbs. cider vinegar
1 tsp. Dijon mustard

In a small bowl, mix the mayo, vinegar & mustard. In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, raisins & apples. Toss with the dressing. Refrigerate, covered, until the flavors are blended -- at lease 1 hour.

Makes 8 servings: 65 calories, l gr. fiber, 2 gr. fat = 1 point

Note: I tend to add a packet of Equal & chopped dates.

Thanks for posting this yummy recipe. Just the thing to accompany garden burgers or veggie dogs. I like it!

Thanks for posting this recipe. I'll be anxious to give it a try. It sounds yummy!

Got this recipe from my ww leader.

9 med. chopped potatos
1 Can 1/2 fat celery soup
3/4 C no fat mayo
1/4 C Vinegar
2 celery stalks
2 chopped green onions
2 hard boiled eggs

Mix soup, mayo and vinegar and 1/2 tsp pepper. Mix thouroughly with chopped ingredients.

10 servings 1 C = 4 points.

I always add a little mustard when I make potato salad just to give it some zing. I would mix it with the soup, mayo and vinegar.

I have been looking for an old Weight Watchers recipe for Mock Potato Salad. When I was on the program years ago I used to make it. It is made with cauliflower and tastes great. Please help if you can, Thanks, Maxie
