These were a big hit at a recent party. I decreased the mayonnaise in the salad to 2 Tablespoons, and it was wonderful. I made 12 in total, rather than 14. The salad is also wonderful in sandwiches. I also combined the cheese with the mayo and sour cream for the topping and it worked really well. Nice for a buffet.
