My mother has a potato salad recipe that I rave over. All of the people who have had potlucks with us over the years have asked her to bring her famous potato salad again and again. I made it for some friends and they raved over it as well. When I think of salad it is the first thing that comes to my mind. I cannot think of a better way to celebrate national salad month than to share the recipe with young women who can then pass it on to others. I hope all of you enjoy this as much as I do.

Hi,
Sounds yummy indeed :) Thanks for the recipe.
Just one small hint, to save energy and water:
I always boil eggs and potatoes in the same saucepan and take the eggs out after 20 minutes.
