About

Some people prefer their potato salad a little mustardy, while others enjoy the cool creaminess that mayo-based salad provides. Creamy Potato Salad is for those in the latter camp. It not only includes mayo to give it a silky texture, but sour cream and milk as well for extra creaminess and tang. This Creamy Potato Salad tastes fabulous with burgers, grilled chicken, and hot dogs.
