This dijon herb potato salad is dressed with a vinaigrette instead of mayonnaise, and it may just convert all you mayo lovers! I used to think I didn’t like potato salad, but it turns out I had just been eating the wrong kind! I love the fresh taste of this potato salad that the parsley and green onion give it, along with the crispness given by the red wine vinegar. The dijon gives it amazing flavor that will leave you asking for more!
