my mama's tater salad
(1 RATING)
I learned to make this potato salad from my mother and I have passed the recipe along to my daughters. We really never measured the ingredients, just threw them together. I have tried to approximate the measurements of the ingredients. Please add or subtract for the consistency and taste you prefer.
