This is a wonderful recipe for potato salad. Being it is Egyptian, it would make a very unique dish to serve for any occasion. I figured the carbs for you and came up with a per serving count of between 23-31 grams.

If you want the low carb version of this recipe, you can subsitute some cauliflower for the potatoes. Of course, this would make it "mock" potato salad, but the carbs would be reduced to 6 to 7 grams per serving.
