Here are 363 potato salad recipes:

The bottom-line is figuring out what else you are having with it..... traditional potato salads are great - ones made like grandma used to make with mayonnaise, etc.





But if you are taking this salad out in warm, sunny weather, you may want to try one of the recipes that use just mustard or vinegar/oil with herbs or whatever, to avoid any food-borne illness from lack of refrigeration, etc.





You also may want to consider a variety of options because of dietary restrictions (low-sodium intake, etc.) or maybe keep it low-cal with not doing a mayo-based potato salad recipe or use reduced calorie mayo, etc.
