What a fabulous idea! You had me at lazy. I love potatoes and potato salad but I so rarely make it because it does seem to take so much more work than most other “summer” salads.
Yum! This looks delicious and so easy! I also use celery seed in place of chopped celery – especially when I’m in a hurry! Now I might have to make some potato salad to quench my craving!
I also have a potato problem! I’ll pick anything with potatoes in them and I LOVE potato salad. Thanks for sharing your quick recipe.
