yes thats it, wasn't sure if mayo is the only option! I never make my own, just buy deli stuff ready made if it's for a quick dinner on the run, and ds likes the left overs next day!
I make my own hot pasta, but that isn't so nice cold!

Without adding spice you could add a little more taste by mixing in some salad cream or a little pickle juice or mustard powder. Just a pinch and it's not so bland. Also, try chopped up ham or chicken. Add in things like peas and onions, or pieces of broccoli/carrot. Even better for him and tasty! Season mayo with a little pepper or something too!
