Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Potato salad pairs well with a variety of main courses. Whether hosting a casual lunch with Brother Johnny, and Cousin John Finley or hosting a DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution) luncheon, there are many options as to what to serve with potato salad. Potato salad is versatile and can be served with all types of sandwiches, even dainty cucumber sandwiches, other cold salads, or try grilling some chicken, steak shrimp, salmon or baked ham, better yet grill up some veggies for your Vegetarian friends.
