The Spicy Olive’s German-style Potato Salad
My Grandma always made a delicious German potato salad with a vinaigrette dressing and lots of crumbled bacon. This is my take on her recipe using our delicious olive oils and balsamic vinegars for the dressing! The Olivewood Smoked olive oil adds to the smoky flavor the bacon imparts on the salad!
