MARGIE'S POTATO SALAD (WITH ITALIAN DRESSING)



Margie's Potato Salad (With Italian Dressing) image

This is my mom's potato salad recipe, which I just love. I haven't seen one here exactly like it. It uses italian dressing to give it flavor, and doesn't have pickles or mustard. The key to an excellent final product is letting the Italian dressing sit for a couple of hours and soak up the flavors before adding the mayo. My favorite dressing to use is the kind you make yourself from a package, adding oil, water and vinegar - just be sure you've made it up ahead of time so it is full of flavor by the time you need it. Cooking time is marinating time.

POTATO SALAD WITH FRENCH DRESSING



Potato Salad With French Dressing image

This is my favorite potato salad now. This recipe came from Naomi Judd's cookbook. I don't use the hard boiled eggs because I don't care for them in my potato salad and I cut back on the mayonnaise,onion, pickle relish and leave out the mustard....you can adjust things to your own taste because what really makes this potato salad is the French dressing. Here is the recipe as it appears in Naomi Judd's cookbook
