Mom's Potato Salad

(sorry for the blurry pic, guys)

My mom makes THE BEST potato salad, in my opinion. She made it for our housewarming party in July and it was a huge hit, as usual. When I asked her for the recipe, her reply was “What recipe? I don’t use a recipe!” But she managed to give some basic guidelines for her potato salad, which follows.

This serves about 4 people. ..

Boil 4-6 large red-skin potatoes. When done, douse with cold water. This will loosen the skins. Refrigerate until cool or cold. Peel and Cut into chunks.

Add:
1 chopped hard boiled egg.
1-2 stalks chopped celery
1 tsp. dill or sweet relish (your preference)
1/4 - 1/2 c. chopped onion

Mix well.

Add:
Season salt and Mrs. Dash original table blend to taste
1 tsp. mustard
1/2 c. Miracle Whip light
Mix well and refrigerate until well chilled.
