Try this. Just use plain low fat yogurt in place of the mayonnaise. Just use your regular tried and true recipes with only this substitution. I bet You will them cut the fat and calories by 80%.

add chopped onion, celery, shredded carrot, chives, low fat mayonaise, and a couple squirts of spicy brown mustard (optional), salt and pepper to taste.

Please, no raisins, walnuts and cranberries! Use plain, low fat yoghurt instead of the mayo and carry on as usual.
