MASHED POTATO SALAD
My daughter taught me how to make this great dish. I had to figure out the measurements for this site. I always cook extra mashed potatoes so I will have enough left over to make this recipe. You can also use fresh mashed potatoes. When I use fresh mashed potatoes, I like to serve the salad at room temperature. You won't believe something so easy is so good.
