Found this recipe in my box when looking for a potato salad to take to a cookout tomorrow. It's a great variation from the traditional mustard salad. The only variances I made were to add 1 chopped onion in place of the 3 green onions, and added 4 hard boiled chopped eggs in place of the red or yellow pepper. It's a good dish for summer. Thanks!
