Warm Potato Salad

This Warm Potato Salad is SO delicious.  Bacon-y, creamy, warm and just so tasty.

A salad you ask?  But summer is over.  Nah.  Salads are fun all year round!  Ok, maybe not fun, but yummy no? Especially warm potato salad.  I honestly could eat this dish once a week…serve it up alongside a roasted chicken and you’re golden.  It’s roasting the potatoes first that makes this salad so good…or maybe it’s the cooked onions (yum), oh I love the pickles too…don’t forget the bacon!  Drooling yet?

I first had this delectable salad while over for dinner at my friend Lori’s house (Hi Lori!), and I seriously couldn’t stop eating it.  It’s so good.  Bacon-y, creamy, warm and just delicious.  And because it’s warm it’s great served as a side dish, because let’s just be honest…potato salads…are they really even a salad?  I mean really?  They’re more of a side dish than a salad right?

Anyway here’s the recipe…trust me, you’re going to want to try it!  So good.
