Yummy! My family won't eat peppers or onion, so I left them out, but added some diced jimica for the crunch, and some diced cheddar. I loved the tomatoes, and used romas so they wouldn't be too wet. Everyone liked it a lot. Thanks!

This is FIVE STARS all the way. I made half the recipe. I didnt have any pkgs of italian dressing mix, so I used 2 tbsp of italian seasoning from clubhouse and 1/2 tsp garlic powder, turned out just the right flavor for us. I diced the potatoes small and they only took 20 minutes to bake, timing will differ depending on the size of the potato. I also only used a bunch of green onion and not the other. I had only red and yellow peppers. I agree with you tomatoes are wonderful but I just couldnt bring myself to add them. Served with BBQ ribs made a nice summer meal. Made for the Summer Salad Snapshot in the cooking photo forum. Thanks for sharing this recipe its a keeper.

I made this for my husband to take to a get-together at work - they LOVED it! I omitted the small chopped onion, as the green onions seemed like enough to me, and I quartered grape tomatoes - they held up great! I used Miracle Whip instead of plain mayonnaise, and added the vinegar and lemon juice to that - nice and tangy! I only used 1/2t. dried basil - personal preference, and omitted the garlic powder. I'll be making this again and again - it's a nice change to the classic potato salad I've always made. Thanks for posting!

yooper, this may very well be the best potato salad I've EVER tasted! The potatoes smelled so good while roasting in the oven I wasn't sure they would make it all the way into a salad, but I sure am glad they did! I left the tomatoes out because I was also serving your Baked Cherry Tomatoes with Parmesan Cheese Topping Baked Cherry Tomatoes with Parmesan Topping. Otherwise I prepared the recipe exactly as directed for one fantastic dish! Thank you so very much! We really enjoyed our meal tonight thanks to you! Next time we have company, this one is coming to the table and I don't care what else is being served!
