I'm not a huge fan of mayonnaise, so I was hesitant to try this recipe. But I'm so glad I did! The lemon and basil really balance out the mayonnaise and create a delicious, creamy dressing.

This potato salad is a keeper! It's creamy, tangy, and flavorful, with just the right amount of crunch from the celery and red onion. I love the addition of basil, which gives it a fresh, summery taste.
