    I used to eat sandwiches with only mayonaisse. Now I've substituted Grey Poupon and love the flavor. I can't live without it now on my sandwiches.

    Laughing Cow Cheese is the best. They have different kinds also.....Great alternative I think.

    I love to do wrap sandwiches, I use flour tortillas or flatbread and spread hummus on it with tomatoes, red bell pepper, basil, onion and turkey, it is yummy. On regular sandwiches I use avocado, tomatoes , honey mustard and sometimes hummus. Just experiment and see what you like best

    I haven't tried it...but I hear that Dijonaise is really good...I know it's really low in calories.

    My first post. :)

    I started thinning my salad dressing with vinegar, maybe you could do that with mayo and mustard??? Perhaps use 1 part mayo, two parts mustard. On my salads, I use 1 TBS French dressing and 2 TBS red wine vinegar which is about 70 calories. Sometimes I just use red wine vinegar by itsself.

    I am the same dang way! dry sammies, suck.

    i first switched to best foods brand's low fat version (has a green lid) - it tastes pretty good for a low fat version. not like the other yucky nonfat/lowfat mayos out there.

    but then i read a tip about using avocado instead - and i tried it. i swear to Buddha, i can't tell the difference!

    avocado FTW!

    I :heart: LOVE:heart: Best Foods Mayo with the olive oil. It is only 50 calories and 5g of fat for 1Tablespoon. It is totally worth it to me :bigsmile:

    I use Kraft miracle whip regular, it is lower in calories and a little sweeter but it does make the sandwich less dry and it's better than mayonaise. I compsensate for it because I use fat free salad dressing and rarely use butter or margerine.

    I use plain yogurt with lemon juice, dry mustard, minced onion, a little garlic and red pepper. Makes for a great substitute for Mayo.

    I'd say unless you are putting gobs of it on, a little mayo isn't going to kill you.

    I love miracle whip lite, but mayo and Miracle Whip are very different. Mustard has almost no calories and adds tons of flavor.

    I like to mash up some avocado and spread it on instead of mayo. But then again, I am a bit of an avocado-holic. Seriously, I loooove avocado and I only have sandwiches around once a week, on average. I'm a loaded-salad-for-lunch kinda girl most days.

    Do it the traditional Catalan way - get a ripe tomato, cut it in half (across the middle rather than length ways), and rub it vigorously into the bread. Traditionally you drizzle a bit of olive oil on too, but you can leave this out if you want it to be super low-calorie.

    I'm really weird and eat tuna right out of the can, without any mayo.

    Buttttttt... if you're looking for something to add to your sandwitches, try Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Greek Yougurt, or Taco Bell sauce - (which has NOTHING in it, at all.)

    Also, be careful with the bread. You can make up for a lot of the calories/fat/carbs by eatting better bread. I eat multigrain breads with NO SUGAR. (most people don't realize there is a lot of sugar in bread, and most bread is the equivilent of eatting cake!)
