Everyone loves this and it is so easy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

It's great not to have to peel potatoes, and now I know to cube the potatoes raw (much easier than when cooked). I add more... light mayo than the recipe calls for and you can tweak it in other ways to your liking, e.g., add chopped hard-boiled eggs. Note to poster Susan: place potatoes in cold, salted water.

When to add the potatoes?
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I want to make this recipe but I need to know if I should bring the water to a boil then add the potatoes or put them in cold... water and let it all come to a boil that way? This sounds like a really good potato salad so please help so I can make it turn out alright. Thanks. Sue in GeorgiaRead more

I Love this Recipe!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have tried so many recipe's... some are too tangy and most are just swimming in mayo. The reviews on this were you loved... it or hated it so I was a little nervous. PERFECTION! I thought it was just perfect! It was even better the 2nd and 3rd day! I took the advice of another review and did add a few diced green onions as well - and some cooked bacon (just a little). This will be our new family potato salad recipe!Read more

Very Good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I loved this, even though I also love the mayo and egg version of potato salad. (Not my fault! I grew up with it.) I made... it as written and loved the tang from the vinegar. I will make this again when I want something quick. I have a feeling it will be even better the next day.Read more

The best potato salad
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I am not a fan of mayo ever! So in this dressing i used only 1tsp instead of 2TB and I lowered the oil and vinegar so it was... not too tangy or heavy. It was still very creamy because of the potatoes and had a lot of flavor. I will absolutely make it again, it was very good! My daughter didn't like the onions or peppers so to make it more kid friendly we will try just celery next time.Read more

Just o'kay potatoe salad
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Tried this recipe a couple of days ago and thought it was just o'kay. I probably will not make it again, although, I do like... the dressing and may alter it a little bit for salad.Read more
