Personaly id go with a 50/50 mix off Hellmans Lighter Than Light Mayo and Heinz Light Salad Cream. I normaly add either paprika or garlic or chives or cajun spices to mine for that extra flavour.

I don't have the breakdown of nutrition on this. You can make it with regular, light, or fat free mayo and sour cream (it's thicker and creamier w/ the regular, but also much higher in fat and calories!)

Red Potato Salad

4-5# Red Potatoes (don't peel)
3 hard boiled eggs
Fresh Bacon Bits (to taste - too much over powers it)
1 chopped onion (I use Walla Walla sweet)
1 Celery Stalk
1 Cup Mayo (regular, light, or fat free)
1 Cup Sour Cream (regular, light or fat free)
1 1/2 Tbsp course ground pepper
2 1/2 tsp Course Sea Salt
1 1/2 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper (if desired)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 1/2 tsp Paprika
Slivered almonds (to taste or texture you prefer)

Boil potatoes w/skin on in salted water. Cook until tender but not too mushy (approx 12-15 minutes). Drain and cool.
Boil, chop, and peel eggs.
Chop onions and celery
Chop COOLED potatoes into 1-1/2" chunks and add to a big bowl with the chopped eggs, onion, celery, and bacon bits.
Put Mayo and Sour Cream and seasonings in a seperate bowl and mix well. Then add the mxiture to the large bowl of potatoes.
Taste and add more seasonings if desired.
Chill well before serving.

(This gets very good reviews from those that have tasted it, by the way!!)
