Grandma's Favorite Potato Salad image

I've never found a better potato salad recipe than this one handed down from my grandma. Like many grandmothers, mine cooked with a dash of this and a dash of that, so I estimated the measurements on this recipe. Feel free to change them according to taste, just like Grandma did! -Susan Plocher, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

I'm not a big fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt instead in the dressing. It turned out great!

I love this potato salad because it's so versatile. I can add or remove ingredients to suit my taste. For example, I sometimes add chopped bacon or hard-boiled eggs.
