This was my first attempt at potato salad and it was a hit with the hubby. I cut the recipe in half, but ended up needing to use 4-1/2 fist-sized potatoes to sop up all the dressing--it was a lot. I increased the cornstarch, used the celery seed that is suggested by the author, used half green onions and half yellow, threw in some relish and a bit of bacon. Sounds like a heart attack waiting to happen...but only a few bites of this was all I needed to go along with the rest of my dinner.

What can I say? It tastes like a fruit salad, which is as good as your fruit is fresh. Four stars because the poppyseeds were a bit much. Added some blueberries I had on hand for good measure.
