Classic potato salad

This timeless classic potato salad strikes the perfect balance between creamy and tangy. Tender red potatoes are gently tossed with a light, flavorful dressing made from Greek yogurt and mayonnaise, offering richness without being too heavy. Thinly sliced red onion adds a crisp bite, while briny capers bring a pop of bold, savory flavor. Simple, fresh, and satisfying—this is a go-to side dish for picnics, barbecues, or any casual gathering.
