This is a super recipe. I've made it several times but not always the same. If I use the recipe as is, I leave out the swiss cheese from the salad mixture but add the swiss cheese when I use this salad for a chicken melt (alternative to tuna melt). I also will sometimes omit the poultry seasoning and use yellow curry powder instead. I also omit the swiss cheese when I make it with curry powder as flavors seem to compete. This salad is great and we have it a LOT during the summer months.

my husband and I loved this dish on a Sunday morning. I use Jimmy Dean's maple flavored sausage (which I also use when making potato soup). The maple flavor in the sausage really lends itself to a root vegetable like potatoes.

It was refreshing to see a knefla recipe that isn't the popular soup. This is how I remember my German Russian grandmother making it. A few things: I would start with 1 1/4 cup flour and add more as needed. I thought this called for a lot of flour and I had to add extra liquid to the dough as it turned out crumbly. Like my grandmother, I par-boiled the potatoes in ham broth, removed the potatoes then cooked the knefla in the broth as well. Instead of frying in oil, I heated the butter until good and brown (med-high heat)and then fried the potatoes and knepfla. Also, I can't resist adding the toasted bread crumbs to this dish. I hadn't made this in years and came across this recipe by accident. Jogged my memory. Thanks. By the way, I grew up in SD, 100 miles or so west of Hoven, SD.
