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.

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!

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!

This is one of the best potato salad recipes I have ever tried. The only thing I didn't like was the intense mustard taste so I halved the amount. It also makes a lot of dressing the way it is written so I also added some more potatoes to compensate. I have gotten rave reviews every time I have made it.

I surely will be making this again. With plenty of herbs in my garden I substituted the onions for fresh chives. I refrigerated the potatoes after boiling to cool. When I put the salad together I combined all the ingredients except the potatoes. While the potatoes were still cold from the fridge I cut them and folded them into the bowl. I served it immediately and it was a huge hit. It still tasted great the next day however I thought it was better served immediately. It is very pretty as well.

My husband HATES potato salad but he liked this recipe. I think it tastes similar to deviled eggs, we devoured it.

My family loved this. I substituted bacon bits for the 7 bacon strips. I only used a cup of mayo and it still made way too much dressing for my taste. Next time I will halve the dressing ingredients.
