My family was tired of the same old potato salad at family functions, so I created this with the ingredients I had on hand. Now I'm always asked to bring it to get-togethers. —Tami Gallagher, Eagan, Minnesota

My whole family really enjoyed this! My kids don't usually eat potato salad and both had seconds of this. It definitely makes a lot of dressing; I could have done with less, but my husband insists it was perfect!

My future son-in-law made this for a family dinner this weekend and it was absolutely delicious! 5 stars for sure.

Very Delicious! We think it tastes better after sitting for awhile in the fridge...either a few hours or overnight.

The flavors of this potato salad really mellow if left in the fridge overnight--otherwise I find the mustard and ranch a little strong and unblended. Otherwise, fabulous.

This is wonderful! With the vinegar and bacon it has a German Potato Salad Flare. Will definitely make again! Thank you Tami!
