I am amazed at how many different types of potato salad there are. And
some people are very vocal about what is and isn't potato salad. I am
not picky; I enjoy all the different versions that are out there.
My Mom, makes several different types of potato salad. This recipe is
one of my favorites. The potatoes are creamy but firm, and all of my
favorite potato salad ingredients are mixed in. It is a perfect dish to
make when you have leftover potatoes. You can cut down the ingredients
to fit the portion size of the leftover potatoes, and customize the
flavors to your personal taste.
