I made a lot of changes, but the basic recipe is good. Here are some changes/additions:

- used some Wasabi Mayo for part of the reg. Mayo
- used Chipotle Sauce to taste in place of chili sauce
- added approx. 2 tbsp. of cocktail sauce
- used 2 avocadoes instead of 1
- used cilantro in place of fresh dill
- used diced Jerusalem artichokes in salad (could be jicama)
- added chopped fresh tomatoes

Served on Romaine lettuce pieces. Keeper recipe & flexible.
