Polish Potato And Veggie Salad (Salatka Ziemniaczano-Jarzynowa) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 potatoes, medium-size, peeled and boiled
    2 carrots, peeled and boiled
    3 eggs, hard boiled
    1/2 apple, peeled
    2 dill pickles (from a brine, not from vinegar)
    1 1/2 cups frozen green peas, defrosted
    1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise (I use Hellmann's 1/2 the fat mayo, made with Olive Oil)
    1 tablespoon prepared mustard
    2 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
    1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    salt and pepper
    1/4 cup green onion (to garnish)
Preparation
    Dice the potatoes, carrots, eggs, apple and pickles; mix gently in a large bowl.
    Add the green peas to the bowl.
    Add nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste.
    In a smaller bowl combine mayonnaise, sour cream and mustard. Add to vegetables.
    Mix all together thoroughly but gently (so it doesn't turn to mush). Adjust seasoning to taste. Garnish with chopped green onion.
    Note: Sometimes, if the taste is a little too bland (depending how sweet or sour the apple is), you could add a teaspoon of lemon juice to the salad.
