Default Great potato salad.

As I posted previously, we are having cold salads for dinner. This is
mainly because I wanted to get rid of the large jar of Veganaise in my
fridge. I much prefer the Just Mayo and now that I can eat it again, I
will. But I also wanted to use up this stuff.

I made some potato salad with bacon, using just what I had on hand. Had no
Dijon mustard and someone had eaten almost all of the yellow. Have tons of
hot mustards, mainly gifts to my husband, but didn't want to use those. So
I used Coleman's dry mustard. Never did achieve the yellow color that I
wanted and had to add a lot more than I intended to, just to get some
flavor. Also a lot more bacon. Also, celery, salt, pepper and dried
parsley. I used Russet potatoes. I wouldn't normally but I can see now
that they were a wise choice, given this mayo.

My chicken salad and the kidney bean relish had a lot of liquid at the
bottom of the containers. The potato salad did not because the potatoes
absorbed it all. I don't think a waxier potato would have done that.

I was worried yesterday when I made this salad because no matter how much of
whatever seasoning I put in it, it just tasted blah. Guess it needed a day
in the fridge because now it is delish!
