I make this at least once a month and then take it for lunch for the week. It's great! - 12/12/12

I made this tonight & it was pretty good. I didn't have any parsley so I used some chives I had on hand. I think this is something I could see myself making frequently for a good healthy salad that is a change of pace. - 5/24/12

It's more like a chutney than a "potato salad"; but very tasty. - 8/6/11
