Healthy Little Red Potato Salad to Die For

Serve on a bed of mixed baby lettuces for any spring or summer dish or as a side to cold chicken or roast beef. Potato salad originated in Germany in the 16th century, where its recipe is vinegar-based and served warm. The American potato salad is usually mayonnaise-based and served cold.
