Bacon Potato Salad

JenzyGirl's Note:

My sister found this recipe in a Taste of Home cookbook. We both made it for our families and all the kids gobbled it up and my kids won't touch potato salad. My husband who is a potato salad fan said it is a keeper. The recipe calls for 4 cups of potatoes, but we both used about 5 cups and best if refrigerated several hours until cold. I also put the chopped onion in the bottom of the collander and drained the potatoes into it to take just a little crip out of the onions.
