Ingredients
 

  • 2 ½ lb russet potatoes washed thoroughly, dried & cut into bite-sized pieces
  • ¾ cup regular or light mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 3 tablespoon sweet relish
  • 2 tbsp dried minced onion
  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt
  • ½ teaspoon dill weed
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 3-4 hard boiled eggs peeled & chopped

Instructions

  • Place the potato cubes in a large pot of water mixed with 1 tablespoon salt and bring it to a boil. Cook the potatoes until they are just fork-tender, typically around 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to overcook them as you want them to hold their shape. Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and let them cool to room temperature.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, relish, seasonings and hard boiled eggs Whisk the ingredients together until you have a smooth and creamy dressing. Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
  • Once the potatoes have cooled, add them to the dressing. Gently fold until the potatoes are evenly coated with the dressing.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl, and if desired, garnish with additional paprika and/or dill weed.
