But this CRISPY BACON POTATO SALAD! Make it, eat it, love it and share it with all your potato salad loving friends. The bacon really takes this up 100 levels if you ask me. And it adds the best texture and little crunch to potato salad. Which you all know is key for me to love a recipe. I always need some crunch involved. And the spices and flavors really come together here with the dressing ingredients.

We recommend making this ahead of time if you can. Nothing too crazy – maybe a couple hours or so. Just so the flavors really marinate and come together when you serve it.
