AVOCADO POTATO SALAD



Avocado Potato Salad image

I got this potato salad recipe from a friend who got it from an adapted recipe from the California Avocado Commission. It's a wonderful recipe, that is lighter because the wonderful tangy dressing substitutes for mayo in most salads such as this. Lots of wonderful flavors, textures, and colors! You may serve this at room temperature, but it is best covered tightly and chilled for 1 to 3 hrs before serving. Can be prepared up to three hours in advance before serving.
