German Potato Salad Recipe

Is it really Tuesday? You’d think that working from home, I wouldn’t be phased by the short workweek — but I am. It’s hard to believe that we’re nearly half-way through the week already. It’s got me a little off-kilter today.

In any case, we had an awesome past few days. This holiday weekend was so much fun, filled with family parties, good laughs and splashes in the pool.

And, of course, we cooked out a lot.

On Sunday, we had some of our family over for a barbecue. We served hamburgers, hot dogs, Antipasti Pasta Salad, tossed salad and this German Potato Salad.

I adore German Potato Salad. The combination of sweet red potatoes, tangy vinaigrette and salty bacon just can’t be beat. You can bet we’ll be having this again and again this summer.

How was your long weekend?

Psst! Got kids? I give mine chalk and let them draw all over the foundation. It washes right off … and is so much fun. Try it!
