    Oh my gosh, this is SO good! I even used a can of drained, Hunts diced tomatoes making the prep even faster and let me tell you, it's down right delicious! However the entire time I was eating it all I could think about was how much better it would be with (real bacon bits.....so, guess what I'm trying next time I make it! ;- LOL

    2 friends at work told me about this delish recipe. For over a YEAR I ignored their urgings to try thus pure awesomeness. THEY make it MONTHLY to share at their office lunch (I'm nit in their dept. So never got to taste this at those lunches. FINALLY, one of the ladies physically dragged me to their office frig and SHOVED a spoonful at me.

    OMG my 11 year old & I have made this 3 times in 2 weeks now! In fact we add all ingredients together EXCEPT the crackers and let sit in frig overnight THEN the next day snap a sleeve of crackers into in and a big dollop more of mayo.

    You'll never make potato salad again with all it's prepping time.

    Even my neighbors and their 5 year daughter give this recipe "that's YUM" mommy!!

    Don't be like me.... Don't wait a year to try this.

    We all add an extra egg to ours. Add or takeaway more or less any of the ingredients you love after tasting it. "Dukes" brand mayo or Helman's really taste super with these ingredients!!!

    Happy eatin' Y'ALL 

    I agree with the below post about when first made..not so good but after sitting in the fridge for a couple of hours and then just adding a few fresh crispy crackers it was really a good side dish for our brisket!!! oh and i did add two eggs instead of one and a dash of celery salt....

    Most excellent! I substituted finely chopped Vidalia onions and quartered plumb tomatoes. I also increased the number of boiled eggs, tomatoes and mayonnaise in the recipe. Was still delicious two days later.

    Paula: this is a great substitute recipe for potato based salad, however, I first saw this about 20 years ago on the Justin Wilson cooking show. I believe that his recipe called for some of the normal potato salad ingredients such as finely chopped celery and perhaps diced pickles, olives, etc. I still like the texture of regular potatoe salad, but as Justin would say, " Ay-Eee! Talk about good!"

    Had some Romas on their last day and remembered this recipe. My only problem is not eating the whole thing by myself!
    I'd like to add baby shrimp next time and see how that turns out.

    When I first made this salad this afternoon, I was very disappointed; however, after letting it sit in the refrigerator for several hours, it definitely improved in taste. My husband and I ate it with grilled baby back ribs for supper, and it was very tasty. He seemed to like it a little more than I did, so I'll probably make it again.

    Loved this recipe of her best part it's that you have most of all the staples right at home always ready! I used the 1 1/2 cup light mayo 2 tomatoes and 2 hard boiled eggs left out the onions. Keep in mind yes if you fridge the leftovers you will have soggy crackers BUT it's solved by adding a few fresh in there when you served and you won't noticed the soggy ones at all! I think a great add in is any kind of meat as long as it isn't greasy and to add some veggies for kids add in peas a great plus hidden right in! Go ahead give it a try you won't be sorry. Might sound strange in the beginning but wrap your taste buds around it and you'll never go back!

    I made this salad and added 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese and a 4.25 oz. can of white lump meat crab and red pepper to taste. My family just loved it. I also used reduced fat mayo and cut back on this a little. Fantastic.

    This salad was a hit with my family. My teenage grandson, who is a very picky eater got seconds and thirds. I stopped making it because I'm a diabetic and crackers are so high in carbs, not to mention the mayo, which is full of calories. I had forgotten what else went into it except for the crackers, tomato & mayo. I cheat on my diet now and then, and this salad is DEFINITELY WORTH CHEATING FOR! This is definitely a keeper. It is very easy to prepare, and soooo gooood! Thanks Paula, you are the best! Also thanks foodnetwork for providing us with the recipes.
