Green Chili Potato Salad

Submitted by Melanie B.

"I created this recipe many years ago when I was looking to do something a little different with my grandma's old fashioned potato salad dressing recipe (which is great by the way). I am now mortified that I actually used canned green chilis...it is much better with fresh ones!"

ingredients

• 3⁄4 cup Miracle Whip
• 3 tablespoons white vinegar
