I'm not a huge fan of celery, so I left it out of this salad. It was still delicious!

I'm not a fan of blue cheese, so I used feta cheese instead. It was still delicious!

This potato and blue cheese salad was an absolute delight! The combination of creamy blue cheese, tangy red onion, and crisp celery was perfectly balanced. The potatoes were cooked to perfection, and the dressing was light and flavorful.
