Re: Good potato salad recipe without mayo?

German potato salad is always a hit in my house.

I always just google recipes.

I don't make it often because it feels like it takes a long time, but it is so, so good!

I like the other ladies suggestions, as well.

Re: Good potato salad recipe without mayo?

I LOOOVE German Potato salad and the boys do too! But it's so unhealthy..

Cut potatoes into chunks and boil inw well salted water until tender.. but still a little firm. Drain and set aside.

Fry up bacon (about a dozen slices) until crip. Remove bacon and set aside. Dice a 1 very large or 2 small onions and add to the bacon fat, stirring until transluscent.

Add about 5T of sugar and a half cup of white vinegar to the onions. Stir until it starts to boil. I add a bit of water too.

Put the potatoes in the onion mix and toss to coat. Add a big handful of chopped parsley and then crumble in half of the bacon. Toss until all incorporated. Crumble the rest of the bacon over it and eat up hot or cold.

If you taste and decide it is too sweet, heat a little bit of reserved bacon fat with some more vinegar and then toss over the salad. Conversely, if you find it is too tart.. heat a bit of water and add in some sugar then toss to mellow the tang.

This salad is great right away.. but is even BETTER the next day!
