Kraft Kitchens Tips

Serving Suggestion

For a great summer meal, serve this classic potato salad with grilled chicken breasts and a fresh fruit salad.

Picnic Safety Tip

When taking food to a picnic, do so in an insulated bag with a reusable ice pack. If you don't have any reusable ice packs, freeze individual juice boxes the night before the picnic. When you're ready to go, pack the frozen juice boxes around the foods in the cooler. The juice boxes will keep your food cold and will be thawed when you get to the picnic to serve as cold drinks for the kids.

Substitutes

Substitute MIRACLE WHIP Dressing for the mayo, GREY POUPON Dijon Mustard for the yellow mustard and 1/2 cup CLAUSSEN Sweet Pickle Relish for the dill pickle relish.

I made this for our block party and I thought it was ok. I left out the celery, celery seed and the relish. I used dijon mustard instead of the yellow, I thought it was not very flavorful. I don't think I would make this again. Hardly any of it went.

This was very good, really down-home taste. I left out the celery, since we don't care for it.

Excellent. I'm not a big potato salad fan..never made it in my life until this recipe. Very easy and delicious. I was proud to serve it. I used red potatoes and didn't peel them....made the prep work much less and it was delicious! (I didn't have celery seed so I substituted with 1/2 tea celery salt and eliminated the salt in the recipe. You can always add more salt later to taste)

i did not have dill weed on hand or relish. But instead of the relish i just chopped up several midget pickles and added them in and it was still very good! I would easily make this again!

I've made potato salad so many times with so many different recipes. This is the best and the only one I make now. My family and anyone I've had for company just love it.
