There are probably 9 million versions of potato salad out there. When it came time to prepare the menu for Easter Dinner at our house I was torn between a hot potato side dish and some kind of potato salad. We were serving among other things, ham, baked beans and deviled eggs. Potato salad seemed the obvious choice. But I wanted something a little different from the usual mustard, pickles and egg-style potato salad. I thought about whipping up a version with blue cheese. Then I mentioned red potatoes with a sour cream and dill sauce. My husband heard the word "DILL" and it was decided. Dill Potato Salad for Easter Dinner. It's delicious, and a perfect accompaniment to any meal, especially a Spring or Summer time picnic or cook out.
