Potato salad tossed with vinaigrette has a lighter taste than traditional mayo versions. I add velvety avocado and hazelnuts for cool texture and crunch. -Laurie Bock, Lynden, Washington

I'm a vegan, so I used a plant-based mayonnaise in the vinaigrette. It was delicious!

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds in the vinaigrette. It was still really good!

This potato salad is way too expensive for what it is. I could make a better one at home for half the price.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my vinaigrette was too oily. I had to add more vinegar to balance it out.
