Classic Potato Salad
Potato salad is one of american classic get together food , it is also one of my favourite salad . I am not a potato person , meaning , i hardly eat any potatoes , and if you serve me baked potatoes or mashed potatoes , i probably wouldn’t even finish 1 serving , that’s how much i dislike or care less about potatoes . But if you serve me , yummy delicious tasty potato salad , oh .. i would not be able to stop eating them !! I hardly make any potato salad at home , just because it would only be me who eats them , my husband doesn’t really care about it , but taste does change .. and he started eating egg salad too , who knows , he might love this potato salad . Classic potato salad is easy , the only thing that takes time is the prep , boiling the eggs , the potatoes , peeling the eggs , peeling the potatoes , chopping doesn’t really take much time , but waiting and peeling potatoes take time . Anyway this is a delicious recipe of potato salad .. very classic !Oh btw .. picture doesn’t do any justice though ..
