Reviews
This recipe came out great, however, I forgot to pick up yellow peppers and used jalapenos I had, and the liquid that they were packed in. Maybe made it hotter than some folks would like but I LOVE it!
Highly recommend, excellent flavors! I used less of the dressing, just my personal preference. It’s wonderful!
I am from the south, so I added a tbsp of sugar. Mind you, I quadrupled the recipe as well. Also added a bit of yellow mustard. Tastes great hot. We will see how it goes after it chills.
This was amazing. I made it for a party and everyone loved it and wanted the recipe!
I love trying out new potato salads and this one did not disappoint. Great combination of flavors!
