New Classic Potato Salad

By Raven Chelanee, on August 18th, 2011,

You can’t have barbecue without Potato Salad. I love just a basic creamy potato salad, nothing fancy. Every now and then I do change it up to give Classic Potato Salad a nice twist. This recipe is a twist on Classic Potato Salad. I usually add Blue Cheese (totally delicious) but omitted this time around for the sake of my DH. If you do decide to add Blue Cheese do so according to your tastes and fold in at the end of the recipe. The cheese goes perfect with the bacon, adding such a rich flavor to the potato salad!

Delicious Rating: This is a potato salad is an easy recipe for the beginner, no crazy steps or culinary processes. It is by far my favorite potato salad recipe, seriously delicious. I make it anytime there is a BBQ and baked beans. I just love how the baked bean sauce touches the potato salad…yummy combination!

Combining the onion and sugar and vinegar and letting them sit really infuses the depth of the potato salad. The sharpness of the vinegar is cut but still is able to give off a great flavor.

I always will make ahead the day before to have it super chilled and set to serve.

Delicious!
