Love this recipe. I didn't have carrots or celery, but I did find a jar of pickled mixed Italian veggies and picked out the carrots and celery, and you know what, they added a wonderful perky taste!! I def recommend that addition. I also found a green pepper and used half, chopping it finely. I used my homemade relish and chopped up two eggs and mixed them up with the rest. My family really enjoyed the salad.
