Prospect Park Potato Salad image

This delicious vegan potato salad comes from one of my new favorite cookbooks: Veganomicon, The Ultimate Vegan Cookbook.. The recipe, as written, makes an enormous amout, but can easily be halved. I love the addition of thinly sliced cucumbers and dijon mustard to this familiar picnic favorite! This recipe calls for something called Vegenaise, which is my favorite brand of vegan mayonaise, containing no eggs.
