Baked German Potato Salad Recipe
Meet the Cook: What makes this German potato salad so different is that it's sweet instead of tangy. During the holidays, my family has an annual ham dinner, and I always prepare it. The tastes blend very well. The first time I took my potato salad to work, people kept coming out of their offices to find out what smelled so good. By lunch, it was gone. Now, I make a double batch to take to work! -Julie Myers, Lexington, Ohio
