I really like potato salad...sort of a red-light food 4 me. I haven't indulged since OP (w-a-y back to 7/10! http://www.healthdiscovery.net/ubb/rolleyes.gif ).

Thank you!

You could make this even lighter by using Best Foods/Hellman's Just 2 Good mayo. 1/4 cup is only 2 points. :D Think I'll do that this weekend. :cool:
