Tator Salad

Memorial Day weekend, what some consider the “official” beginning to summer. Kids are out of school for the year and starting summer vacation, family vacations are starting, and everyone’s having a great time! One of my favorite things during these holiday weekends is the FOOD! My new favorite summer recipe to make is my homemade tator salad. I’ll share my recipe below. Be sure to leave some feedback and let me know how yours turns out! Share some of your recipes with us, or some ingredients you like to add to your salad, as well!
