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

Great potato salad but you can cut the sauce in half, especially if you double or more the potatoes.

I made this last weekend and thought it was very good. However, unless you like a really creamy potato salad, the mayonnaise could be cut back to 1 cup. I also thought the mustard was a bit high.

Mine came out a little too assertive on the taste. The vinegar was very strong next time I would say to use less.

I love a good potato salad and this one is Excellent!! Can't wait for my husband to try it but that means I have to share it!

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!
