Hi Reader, I didn’t grow up eating Watergate Salad — but once I married into it, there was no going back. The first time I had it was at one of my husband’s family reunions years ago. Big potluck tables under the shade, paper plates stacked high, and someone always brought this sweet, creamy green fluff.
