So a few weeks ago at work we had a farewell luncheon for a lady who has worked in our accounting department for sixteen years. The accounting department was going to provide the meat and a cake and everyone else wanting to attend was asked to bring a side dish to help contribute. I love potluck lunches because you always get to see what other people bring and get to try a variety of food.
As I was thinking of what I was going to bring the perfect dish popped into my head, potato salad. Yes, I know it is sort of generic but this potato salad is like no other; it is the Taste of Home Three Potato Salad Recipe. It is not your traditional potato salad as it is made up of three different types of potatoes: russet, red, and sweet potatoes. It does not have mustard, pickles, or eggs. It is just simple with potatoes tossed in creamy dill dressing. I absolutely could eat the entire bowl in one sitting!
So my recipe today may not be one of my own but one I absolutely love and want to share with you today!
