TRADITIONAL COLOMBIAN POTATO SALAD
This is the way my MIL makes potato salad, at least according to DH's memory. It has vienna sausages, cut up, potatoes, eggs, peas and carrots. Don't laugh, it is good and every bite tastes different. For some reason, the only vienna sausages I could find in the store were made by Goya in the International aisle. I guess it is just one more ingredient that is disappearing from the shelves in the supermarket.

BEST CLASSIC POTATO SALAD
Creamy, tangy, and crunchy, with a hint of spice and sweetness from pickles, this reminds me of my grandmother's potato salad served every Easter or any time we had barbecue. She always dotted it with olives for a finishing touch and a perfect briny addition. This is the best classic version of good old-fashioned, Southern-style potato salad. Not too mayonaissey with just the right amount of tang! Serve with grilled or smoked meats as the perfect side dish.
