Summer 2020 clearly a summer of limited movement for my family and I (for obvious reasons). So because of that I am trying to bring all my summer favorites to the house! Now I typically only have potato salad when I attend cookouts or if I am really craving it.
Now, I am Nigerian-American so potato salad isn’t something we typically eat or grow up eating. My love for this side dish grew over time. I am actually pleased to be able to share my own potato salad recipe with you. This recipe was created after trying other people’s recipes, trial and error, and much tweaking. Now I don’t claim to be a chef or the world’s best cook… I am just a woman who loves food and loves cooking for my family.
I hope you enjoy it!
