Who doesn’t love potato salad? This is a cool and creamy homemade potato salad recipe that has been in my family for decades. It is a mandatory part of family get togethers. It really is best if you make this in advance. The day before is best, but if that’s not possible, at least 5 hours before serving will do. This is a Southern recipe that we are proud of.

Serving Size : 8
