Aunt Laura’s Potato Salad
My Aunt Laura’s potato salad is the BEST. It is a super simple recipe, but it tastes fantastic. The best part is that you can make it ahead of time because it only gets better with age. This potato salad is a staple at pretty much every summer time event. This is actually the only recipe I will use Hellmann’s mayo for (#TeamDuke’s) because it has to be made EXACTLY like my Aunt Laura makes it. This is the perfect side with hotdogs, brats and/or hamburgers. I usually make it alongside my turkey burger recipe.
