Love the healthy potato salad! I always steer away from it as it is not the healthiest option 🙂 The greek tortellini salad looks so delish!

I love using yogurt on potato salad. I make a spicy one for my sweet potato and black bean salad! Cannoli stuffed strawberries look absolutely delicious!

THanks for sharing! We grill out with friends a TON, and I'm running low on menu ideas already this summer.
JulieWunder says
That sounds like a great summer!
Jamie says
I swear food tastes better when I eat outside! Summer grilling and patio dinning are some of my favorite things : )
JulieWunder says
I totally agree!! I will find any reason to eat outside.
Susie @ SuzLyfe says
I'm all about the fresh and healthy sides. The rest of the south.... not so much. You would think that with as hot as it gets, mayo wouldn't be the first mix in, you know?
JulieWunder says
Seriously! haha!
