Notes

Notes:
* For a healthier option, use sour cream or Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise. I used mayonnaise in this recipe, as it is what I had in my fridge. As this recipe does not call for much, I still consider this a healthy recipe. Whichever option you use, this ingredient will provide the creamy element that will make you forget you are eating healthy.
