Title: German Potato Salad
Categories: Salads, Low-fat, Tnt
Yield: 6 Servings

3 c Diced cooked potatoes
-(16 oz raw)
1/2 c Finely chopped celery
2 1/2 ts Dried parsley flakes
1/2 c Chopped white onion
3 tb Hormel Bacon Bits
2/3 c Water
1 tb All-purpose flour
1/4 c Vinegar
2 tb Sugar Twin or Sprinkle Sweet
1/4 ts Prepared mustard

In a medium bowl, combine potatoes, celery, and 2 teaspoons parsley flakes.
Set aside. In a large skillet sprayed with butter-flavored cooking spray,
saute onion until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add bacon bits and continue
cooking 1 minute, stirring often. In a covered jar, combine water, flour,
vinegar, Sugar Twin, remaining 1/2 tsp parsley flakes, and mustard. Shake
well to combine. Stir flour mixture into onion mixture. Continue cooking,
stirring often, until mixture thickens, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Pour hot sauce mixture over potatoes. Mix gently to combine. Serve warm or
cold.

I found this recipe recently in Joanna Lund's _The Diabetic's Healthy
Exchanges_ and was very pleased when I tried it. Don't let the idea that it
comes from a diabetic recipe book scare you. It tastes great and the
substitutes don't give it an inferior taste, you can be sure, or I wouldn't
recommend it. The only thing you might want to add is a little salt and
basil.
