I agree with what others have said; it's a great side dish served hot. I made a few changes to mine was: I cooked off the garlic in a little oil oil before adding in the potatoes, green onions, broth, and 'cajun' seasoning. I used canned broth in the place of the granules. I also added some bacon bits.

I am giving this a high rating but NOT as a salad. As a side dish, this is amazing! When I was eating it as a salad, it just tasted odd. Once I warmed it up, the dish was good. But, I made these changes: I added freshly ground black pepper and used 6 med. red potatoes. I really hesitated putting a hot pot of water of and potatoes in the fridge--not only would it make your fridge less efficient, but also it's not good to have a hot hot pot in with cold milk, eggs, etc. The walnuts made this dish very yummy--as did the red wine vinegar. But I can't stress enough that as a salad--ick! As a warm dish--yum!!
