Greek Potato and Chicken Salad
Salads when had the right way can never go wrong! This is one of my favorite salads as it is healthy and nutrious without using any mayo or other condiments for that extra creaminess.
The right way to make the perfect Greek Potato Salad is to cook it to the right consistency, not too mashy nor too hard. Also remember not to make the dressing too acidic by adding too much lemon juice also not too add a large garlic clove as this may cause the salad to taste bitter.
Just keep these points in mind and I am sure you and your family will love it too!
Also yoummay completely avoid adding the chicken, I like to make Salad as a meal,aand my family loves non veg, so added chicken too :)
