Classic Potato and Egg Salad

Jump to recipe

Friends, it’s summer sandwich season and I don’t know about you, but I do get tired of that side of potato chips.  I also get a little tired of thinking about the ridiculous number of calories I can ingest while eating those chips (#noselfcontrol).   This Classic Potato & Egg Salad is a lower calorie option than those chips. It’s also super easy to make, and it will go great with all of your summer sandwiches and barbeques.   ~Tracy
