Potato Salad

I know it's been an unusually cool spring, so I'm sure many, like myself are experiencing SPRING FEVER. I've done a bit of research and will be sharing some Kosher brand hot dogs to go with this delightful Potato Salad.

Potato Salad

12 Med. Potatoes
6 Eggs
4-5 Tbsp Miracle Whip
½ medium Onion diced
1 Tbsp Mustard
½ Green Pepper diced
1 Tbsp Dill Weed
4 stalks Celery sliced
Salt & Pepper
3 heaping Tbsp. sweet Pickle Relish
Paprika
Dill Weed


In kettle of water, place washed potatoes still in jackets, add eggs on top and boil until potatoes are done. They should be tender, but not mushy. Remove kettle from heat, pour off hot water and fill with cold water and ice. Let stand for 10 minutes. Peel eggs and set aside.
Remove jackets from potatoes and cut into ¾ inch pieces, placing in large mixing bowl as you go. Dice 5 of the eggs and add to the bowl of potatoes. Do not stir. Add onion, pepper, celery, and relish, over the top of potatoes and eggs, still without stirring.
Add Miracle Whip, mustard, dill, salt and pepper. Go lightly on the salt and pepper for now, more can be added when served, but too much will detract from the fresh flavor. Gently stir until thoroughly combined. Once salad is mixed, move it to serving bowl, if different. Smooth and level the top of the salad with large spoon. Slice remaining egg to accent, top of salad. Sprinkle lightly with dill weed and paprika. Refrigerate overnight.

A summertime favorite!
