MAMA'S POTATO SALAD



Mama's Potato Salad image

This old-fashioned potato salad recipe doesn't have many ingredients, so it isn't as colorful as many that you find nowadays. But Mama made it the way her mother did, and that's the way I still make it today. Try it and see if it isn't one of the best-tasting potato salads you have ever eaten! -Sandra Anderson, New York, New York

MOM'S BEST POTATO SALAD



Mom's Best Potato Salad image

This recipe was shared with me by my mom. This is THE BEST potato salad I have ever had! Whenever we have family get-togethers, I always ask my mom to bring this salad! The vegetables add such a nice refreshing crunch. My mom also likes to add 1/4 cup diced green pepper and 1/4 cup diced cucumber, but I prefer it without.

MOMMA'S POTATO SALAD



Momma's Potato Salad image

My mother used to make the best potato salad. Anytime we had a family gathering everyone requested she make her potato salad. Unfortunately I lost my mother before I could get her original recipe, but from experience of knowing the ingredients she used this recipe is the closest I have came. It's the same but not my mothers touch, as everyone would know a mother's touch is always the best. Hope you enjoy this as much as I do.
