Best Classic Potato Salad
Side DishesIf you're looking for a classic, no-fuss potato salad to bring to all your summer picnics and BBQs, your search stops here. Based off of my dad's recipe, this potato salad checks off all the boxes: it's creamy and tangy, with a little bit of crunch from the onion and pickles. What it's not: too sweet, which is one of my potato salad pet peeves.
