Tyler Florence Potato Salad

I came across a video of Tyler Florence preparing a potato salad dish on Tasteof Home.com and it looked so good. Tyler gives a very important tip in the video: if you boil potatoes for potato salad, make sure to let them cool before you add ingredients like mayonnaise. Hot potatoes + mayonnaise = not good!  However, if you’re looking for a healthier alternative to mayonnaise in your potato salad, Potatoes USA recommends low-fat plain yogurt or Greek yogurt – we promise, you won’t miss the mayo once you’ve added lots of flavor from other veggies and herbs and spices.
