I'm not a huge potato salad fan, but I do enjoy it prepared this way. It's like a fully loaded baked potato in salad form. Cooking time included chilling time. I hope you will enjoy this tasty salad. Ingredients:

1/8 cup gouda cheese, shredded |
1/8 cup garlic chives (you could use 1/8 cup green onions if preferred) |
2 tablespoons gouda cheese, shrredded |
