Description

A creamy and delicious potato salad with hard-boiled eggs, perfect for picnics and barbecues.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds of potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes recommended)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
  2. In a separate pot, place the eggs and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 12 minutes, then cool in ice water and peel.
  3. In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Cut the cooled potatoes into bite-sized pieces and add them to the bowl with the dressing.
  5. Chop the hard-boiled eggs and add them to the salad along with the diced celery, red onion, and parsley. Gently fold everything together until well combined.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving.

Notes

  • For added flavor, consider adding diced pickles or relish to the salad.
  • You can substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise for a lighter version.
  • This potato salad can be made a day ahead to let the flavors meld.
