GREEK YOGURT DILL POTATO SALAD
This salad is light and refreshing! I get lots of emails from folks who want a lighter and healthier alternative to potato salad. Basically, folks want an option other than mayo. I can respect that. Personally I adore a good mayo-laden potato salad. But for many folks who are looking for lighter, healthier (but still tasty!) options, there aren’t always a whole lot of reliable recipes. So, I played around with and tested out a few recipes.
