I remade this recipe and it was really good, we made sure to salt and pepper to taste, and added garlic & onion powder.

It was just OK. Very bland and made to much sauce.

Wonderfully creamy dressing. My daughter in law doesn't like potatoe salad, but she took this recipe home with her to make it herself!
