About Red, White and Blue Potato Salad
Getting in the mood for a holiday, I thought I would share my recipes for this classic 4th of July dish. It makes the perfect side dish for any 4th of July party, cookout, or picnic. I like my a bit on the spicy side but if you do not, feel free to leave out the mustard. Even though this dish usually is side just for the 4th of July. I love it so much I sever it all year around. Not only does it looks great on a plate, but it tastes so good. It is a perfect dish to take to a BBQ or picnic, and kids always get a kick out of the bright colors.
