I wanted to give a little flavor to a potato salad without taking so much away from the way it's traditionally done ..and it turned out lovely😋

I hope relaxing and fun! We didn’t do much this weekend except take long walks with Charlie. Sunday was a lovely sunny day so on the way back from our walk I asked my hubbie what he wanted for lunch. He said sandwiches and potato salad, I knew which potato salad he meant and this one was going to take time to prepare. 🙂You are probably thinking by now, that seems to be a pretty simple lunch to make. Well not exactly because the potatoes are baked, not boiled so this is why more time is needed in the kitchen. It took me about an 1 1/2 to put together the potato salad. Oh!! wait one more thing there is also a delicious Mustard Sauce that is generously drizzled over the mushrooms and onions before baking, save 1/2 to drizzle over the potatoes. By the time I was done, it was already 3 pm so this was a very late lunch. Dinner was definitely out of the question. 🙂

A flavorful alternative to traditional potato salad.

My dad just came out of surgery and had a hankering for potato salad, but so much potato salad is such bland garbage. So, I thought for a bit about potatoes, and how everyone loves a loaded baked potato, and, voila, Loaded Potato Salad, a mixture of potatoes, sour cream, chopped leeks, cheese, bacon, red pepper, etc. My dad loved it.

Delicious, creamy potato salad. I love the crunch and creamy combo. I make this every year for holiday side dishes for thanksgiving and Christmas. Perfect for bbqs and parties. The onlything is i make 3. One like this (loaded), 1 with egg and potato, and one with just potato, all with the yolk mixture though. my family is very particular lol. So good thing its a pretty versatile dish. I hope you enjoy.

This potato salad's not for the faint hearted. Literally, because bacon grease is a key component. Other than that, it is both delicious and decadent. And, when paired with a simply seared piece of salmon or a small steak, not to mention a few sensible greens, makes for a very satisfying dinner.

Potato salad is mandatory at any family gathering, and this recipe has quickly become a popular request at any bbq I attend. :)
