Potato Salad Recipe

A simple potato salad recipe you can follow, makes a great treat for your next picnic.

What you’ll need:
4 regular potatoes or 6 red potatoes (your choice)
4 hard boiled eggs
1/2 of a red onion (I prefer it diced into small pieces)
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1 tablespoon spicy mustard
Seasonings to taste…I prefer just simple salt and pepper with potato salad

1. Clean, cube and cook your potatoes until they are fork tender. After you’ve drained them, set them aside for a moment.

2. Are your eggs peeled and ready? Chop eggs up into bite size pieces. Are your onions diced?

3. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, mayo and mustard folding into the onions. Once they are all combined, fold the mixture into the potatoes. Season to taste.

There’s a simple recipe for potato salad. My son doesn’t like onions, so sometimes I’ll leave them out. Other times I’ll add in some other fun things such as bacon bits, or a little ranch dressing for a zingy flavor. The great thing is that once you know how to make a simple potato salad recipe, you have the basics down. After that basic recipe is made, you can play with different ideas to make it your own. Maybe your family likes a little kick and dash! Why not try a little Tabasco added.

While I’ve tried different versions of the recipe, the one above is tried and true, and one that is basic. A simple potato salad recipe is all your need to get started! Don’t be afraid to experiment, and make it your own for your next picnic!
