Everyone loved this potato salad! It is a little more work than most potato salad recipes, but well worth the time if you have it!
My grandma used Miracle Whip in her potato salad and it was the BEST in the Pacific Northwest!! I am so grateful for Grandma teaching me how to make it. I make it for my family and when I attend potlucks I always come home with a big empty bowl.
Best potato salad I've made. The whipping cream makes it really creamy. I also used mayo.
For those claiming this is not grandma’s recipe....it’s the submitters Grandma’s recipe.
This is a decent recipe, however, grandma’s recipe never included butter, heavy cream and definitely Miracle Whip; which is not even classified as mayo. Other than that, not bad.
This is a must have at all family gatherings! Very creamy! I used mayo instead of miracle whip & it was amazing. Everyone came back for seconds.
Delicious potato salad
