My grandma used to make me potato sandwiches with just potato, salt, pepper and mayo on white bread. So good. Had leftover potato salad, googled potato salad sandwich (figured someone else had thought of this) and happened upon this gem. I’m not vegetarian, though was raised vegetarian. I often prefer vegetarian and will probably be throwing one of these together next time I’m at a cookout (who knows when that will be in this pandemic).
It was ok. Just didn’t fill me up.
This was surprisingly good and a great way to use up leftovers! I don’t think we would go out of our way to make this all the time, but it was nice for a change! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Delicious!
I put potato salad on my grilled burgers, hot dogs and ham and swiss sandwiches
We had these for a late night snack with some leftover potato salad I had in the fridge. I don’t love potato salad so I didn’t have much hope for em but they turned out nice and maybe I won’t always have potato salad lurking in the fridge after a bbq.
So funny, I was eating one of these when I decided to look it up. And to think, I thought I was the only person who ate this- my kids still think I’m nuts! LOL I do not add extra mayo, and usually just eat it on plain bread, but today I had toast.
I made these DAILY during the first trimester of my last pregnancy. My husband thought I was crazy- so surprised to see that someone else thought of it too! It’s actually delicious!
Thank you for the wonderful Idea… I followed your direction and tuened it into a wonderful lunch-time sandwhich. Because of this recipe we started our introduction to new and creative vegitarian foods. Thank you so very much… Jerry
A tasty snack but not something I will crave always having potato salad in the house in order to have on hand. If I have leftover salad, it is a easy, fun option.
I Loved it!! Thanks
I’m pregnant & can’t stand the thought of most meat so nearly everyday I try a different veggie sandwich for lunch. This was actually very good. I used a good wheat bread & added paprika
I like doing this too. Don’t see the need to add extra mayo, though, since potato salad typically has enough mayo as it is. Also: this is NOT a good alternative to peanut butter and jelly if you’re taking it on a picnic or car trip because potato salad grows bacteria really quickly. At the 2010 Boy Scouts of America Jamboree, in which my family participated, lots of boys and leaders got food poisoning from potato salad that wasn’t kept properly cold. It can be really nasty really fast if you’re not careful…
Loved these. The only change I made was to add a slice of aged Swiss cheese and a hard, crusty roll. Thank you, Jenny.
I’ve eaten potato salad sandwiches all my life and love them on a single piece of plain white bread (folded over) with an ice cold Dr. Pepper. My mom always used plain mashed potatoes (no chunks for us) with all the other ingredients. We still prefer her way of making mashed potato salad.
This was wonderful on a spring day! =) I added extra pickles and left out the tomato because we were out. Great on a whole grain wheat bread or even rolled up in lettuce. Thanks!
Well this was certainly different. I liked it okay, but I wouldn’t make it again. I didn’t care for the textures together. It wasn’t bad at all,I guess I simply prefer my potato salad with a fork. Thanks for something new. I enjoyed trying a fun meal.
I really loved this!! I have so much potato salad leftover from Easter, I just had to give this a try. My salad is a very simple recipe using potatoes, mayo, mustard, relish, salt, pepper with a lot of hard boiled eggs. I skipped using the extra mayo because this has plenty. I really love the tomato with this, it’s great. I will definitely make this sandwich again, as I always make too much potato salad during the summer months. Funny thing is, I used to see my Grandmother eat these all the time and never had the desire to try it. So glad I finally did, thanks 🙂
Made potato salad last night. Had never tried this before, but for some reason when I got up today I was craving a potato salad sandwich this morning! Absolutely delicious. I added a couple of dashes of Texas Pete and this was VERY satisfying!
I was so hungry that I forgot to take a picture of this. Great way to use up potato salad. Thanks
My 7 year son loved this sandwich, I served it hot off the stove and added jalapenos for hubby’s sandwich. Five stars, will certainly make again. Next time I’m going to try ranch bacon dressing for added flavor and 1 boiled egg.
