Potatoes, sour cream and chives. Need I say more? This simple potato salad recipe is my go-to for days when I need a side dish that doesn’t take much time or effort and can be made with ingredients I already have in the house. I love using new or baby potatoes as they cook so quickly and they don’t need to be peeled. The dressing consists of sour cream (you can add a splash of milk or water to thin out if you prefer), garlic powder, chopped chives, salt and pepper. 6 ingredients to the creamiest of potato salads? Yes please!

Can you make potato salad the day before?

Yes, this potato salad can be made the day before. Simply make the salad then allow to cool completely before covering and refrigerating. Remove from the fridge an hour before serving.
