This potato salad is so creamy and flavorful! I love that it's made with Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.

I was nervous to try this without mayonnaise but it was so good! It’s nice to have a lighter, healthier version of potato salad.

I’ve tried this recipe three times now and each time it comes out perfect! It is so creamy and flavorful, and easy to make. I like to add some chopped bacon to the salad for extra flavor.
