I loved this! I was a bit leary of the cottage cheese, but it blended in nicely. I skipped the pickles and shaved the red off of a few radishes for added color. The dill is a MUST. I added about 4 tbsp and loved the fresh flavor it added. Thanks for sharing ev! Made for ZWT4 -
ev...this is a great potato salad.....Only thing I changed was to leave out the egss,(hate them in cold salads) otherwise it was made as stated. I loved the great meld of tastes in the dressing and it seemed the longer it set the better it tastes. Thanks!

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
