Gonna try it with chicken instead of potatoes but the original version with potatoes still sounds great.

I just made this potato salad for Father’s Day supper. Husband is traveling tomorrow. This is amazing. I added green onions, red bell pepper, a little extra celery, extra bacon, a little smoked paprika, and a little less cheese than the recipe called for. It is AMAZING. I am a potato salad junkie. My son said this was his favorite. Stephanie, I also love fashion, shopping, cookies for breakfast, and I have curly hair. I am thinking you are from the South. I am originally from the South.

Potato salad is always a favorite at summertime barbecues and I can imagine that the bacon makes this one disappear even faster!
