I love this potato salad! It's easy to make and very tasty -- and people don't miss the eggs (my husband doesn't like hard-boiled eggs). It was a big hit on July 4th. <br/><br/>I used 8 red potatoes, which are clearly more than 4 large potatoes (LOL), so I doubled both of the dressings. I covered the potatoes with water, brought to a boil, and boiled gently for about 30 minutes, until the skins started to come off and they were tender; I left the skins on in the salad. Also, I added the green onions to the potato salad.<br/><br/>The aroma of the first dressing is so wonderful you may be tempted to stop there, but the dill, radishes, & green onions in the second dressing really finish it off nicely.<br/><br/>Update: It's now nearly 5 years since I posted my review and I still LOVE this recipe. Family and friends request it whenever I offer to bring something to a gather. Yum!

I am a SAHM of 3 - I really love to cook, but find it challenging between 4-6 in the evening, so I am constantly on the lookout for quick and yummy dishes.
My favorite cookbooks are from my local junior league, they are Colorado Cache and Creme de Colorado. I also love the Fanny Farmer cookbook for basic stuff.
