Traditional Colombian Potato Salad

Submitted by threeovens

"This is the way my MIL makes potato salad, at least according to DH's memory. It has vienna sausages, cut up, potatoes, eggs, peas and carrots. Don't laugh, it is good and every bite tastes different. For some reason, the only vienna sausages I could find in the store were made by Goya in the International aisle. I guess it is just one more ingredient that is disappearing from the shelves in the supermarket."

This is pretty much my Nanas recipe and she was German. Her only difference was cooked diced bacon instead of the sausage but I have been known to put in chopped up hot dogs if that is all I have. I cook the potatoes the night before and all you have to do is assemble the rest of the ingredients the next day. Yummy
