Red Potato Salad — My Girl Paula

It is time for My Girl Paula, once again, and with gratitude to Michelle, our cheerful organizer, I want to send this red potato salad.  Our topic is healthful salads.  Normally, I would not say potato salads are particularly healthy if they have mayonnaise but this recipe calls for the slightest bit of mayo.  This was an OK salad.  I think that I would like it better with some other spice. I would make it again but would play with the spices and see what I could do. Red Potato Salad
