My Potato Salad!

Who doesn't have THE best potato salad?

Or at least knows someone or three that claims to have the best. While I do love my potato salad, I believe that the issue is that potato salad's beauty is in the eye of the beholder or taster! Some of us like it zesty, other's sweet and yet others may want it a little tangy. "Is that mustard?", "Oh I always use boiled eggs", "You got to sprinkle a little sugar on it". Love it or leave it, here is Mama Joy's Rendition:

MJ's Red Potato Salad

3lbs. Red Potatoes (small soft fleshy variety)

1 cup Hellman's Mayonnaise (registered)

1/2 cup celery, diced small



MJ's Red Potato Salad

1 medium red or yellow onion minced

1/8 cup sweet relish

1 tsp. yellow or spicy brown mustard

1 tsp. Lawry's seasoned Salt (registered)

1 Tbsp. Old Bay seasoning (registered)

1 tsp. black pepper

1 tsp. garlic powder (halved)

1 tsp. parsley flakes and more for garnish

Optional:
3 hard boiled eggs, diced,
Several cherry tomatoes sliced.

Quarter potatoes then add to a pot with enough water to cover all potatoes. Add 1/2 tsp. garlic powder to water. Boil until potatoes are tender with the prick of a fork. (Some folks like the potatoes hot for the next step, I prefer them to be cooled down a bit). When done, drain and rinse with cold water a couple of times. Drain again. Use a cloth or towel to blot dry if need be. Dice potatoes and place in large bowl. Add all other ingredients except optional items and blend well. If you like, fold in eggs then garnish with parsley and tomatoes.

Hope you love it Dollies!
