Make-over Spaghetti & Shrimp Salad by Salad Foodie

Originally mayo was the dressing for this salad recipe from a friend long ago, but I decided to give it a make-over.

Dill Potato Salad by B Innes

In general for potato salads you want a low starch potato, ideally if you can find them fingerlings, if not then small red potatoes or even in a pinch Yukon golds.
