Notes

  • For best flavor, refrigerate the Loaded Potato Salad for at least 2 hours, or even overnight.
  • Reheat gently in the microwave, stirring frequently to prevent drying out.
  • Serve this hearty salad alongside grilled chicken or pulled pork for a complete and satisfying meal.
  • To prevent the potatoes from becoming gummy, be sure to drain them very well after boiling and let them cool completely before mixing with the other ingredients.
