POTATO SALAD FOR THOSE WHO HATE POTATO SALAD
I found this recipe in the Kraft magazine one summer, but I can't remember what it was called or the exact recipe. This version tastes similar and could be served hot or cold. If served hot, skip cooling and rinsing the potatoes. I actually hate real traditional potato salad, but I really like this one, it's one of my favorites.

YUMMY POTATO SALAD (FOR THOSE THAT USUALLY HATE IT)
I never liked potato salad, until this recipe. It's so good. I came up with this to satisfy my husbands love for potato salad, but decided to do it my way since I didn't like all the other potato salads I had tried. And low and behold... I love potato salad. Well, this one anyway. The amount of mayo is an estimate since it really depends on the size of your potato chunks and how much mayo you like. I also found that this was much tastier served warm or room temp. Prep time does not include the cooling time for the potatoes, but does include the time to cook them.

Tips:
- Choose firm potatoes. Yukon Gold, red potatoes, or fingerling potatoes are all good options, as they hold their shape well when cooked.
- Cook the potatoes until they are tender but not mushy. You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork, but they should not be falling apart.
- Let the potatoes cool completely before assembling the salad. This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
- Use a light hand when adding the dressing. You can always add more dressing later, but it's difficult to remove it once it's been added.
- Add some crunch to the salad with celery, radishes, or bell peppers.
- Garnish the salad with fresh herbs, such as dill, chives, or parsley.
