Warm Potato Salad

Often called “German Potato Salad” – Warm Potato Salad is basically a version of the popular side dish that doesn’t have mayonnaise involved and it is typically served warm. It is a very simple – yet very tasty – accompaniment to burgers, steaks, sausages, grilled chicken, all sorts of backyard BBQ dishes. It is also a great dish to bring to a pot luck – as the flavors just get deeper the longer it sits – and with the no-mayo, makes it more table stable!
