Steps:
- 1. Peel potatoes and cut into 1 inch cubes; place in a 5 quart pot, cover with water (I add some salt to water); boil for approximately 7 to 8 minutes (time may vary so check for firmness around 5 to 6 minutes, don't over cook and don't under cook, you don't want mashed potato salad and you don't want under cooked potatoes; drain and rinse in cold water; drain well.
- 2. While potatoes are draining and cooling off; combine chopped onion and eggs; set aside.
- 3. In a separate bowl, combine pickles, celery, salt and pepper, mustard and mayonnaise.
- 4. Once potatoes are cooled; add chopped onion and eggs; fold together gently; add mayonnaise mixture and combine gently with other ingredients; if salad seems like you don't need all the mayonnaise mixture; don't use it all, if salad seems to dry, add additional mayonnaise.
- 5. Garnish top with sliced boiled eggs and sprinkle with paprika if desired.
- 6. NOTE: This was an excellent choice for a side to go with https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-jalapeno-bourbon-ribs-dee-dees/pork and https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-cheese-biscuits-dee-dees/biscuits.
- 7. Pretty good with Crock Pot BBQ Chicken and some baked beans on the side...yum!!
DEE'S TRI COLORED POTATO SALAD
I have had many potato salads in my lifetime. I like this one the best. I grew up with them made only with russet potatoes by my mom. I never liked hers because it us too mushy and russets make a grainy texture. I discovered I liked the texture and flavor of red potatoes better. Then when tri colored potatoes came out several yr ago, I started using them. I love the look of the yukon gold, red & purple potatoes in this salad. This is a borrowed net pic. I will post my pic when I make it tomorrow.

Steps:
- I like to steam my potatoes of this salad so the purple taters don't bleed their color so much. Steam until tender but not overdone & mushy. You can also use the steam water to cook the eggs. Chop all veggies while they are cooking. Cool eggs & potatoes until you can handle them, but still warm. Dice potatoes and pour salad dressing over them. Toss to coat. Dice eggs on top of potatoes. Cover and chill for a couple of hours. Put salad together by adding all the other ingredients. Mix well and adjust mayo or seasonings if necessary. Chill several hours before serving so flavors can marry. Enjoy!
DEE'S POTATO SALAD DRESSING
This came from a friend of mine who lived in TN who passed away about 5 years ago. Her Grandmother always made this and it is an excellant dressing. It is a tad sweet so you can cut back on the sugar if you like but I find it even better after it has sat over night so the potatoes have a chance to soak up the flavors! I also add cut up hard boiled eggs to my potato salad. To be honest I have no idea how much it makes and how many servings. I make this when I am having company and I boil about 5 lbs of potatoes and it cover that amount.

Steps:
- Boil cubed potatoes until tender. Drain and let cool. When cool, place in a large bowl. Add the chopped onion and dill pickle relish to the potatoes.
- Separate the boiled eggs yolks from the white. Chop up the egg whites and place in with the potatoes. Place the boiled egg yolks in a medium size bowl and mash them with a fork until fine.
- Add the cup of mayo to the bowl with the egg yolks. Next, add the ranch dressing powder to the bowl. I recommend a small hand mixer or a small hand blender to mix the powder, mayo and egg yolks. If it is too thick, I add a little dill pickle juice. Mix until creamy. Add to the large bowl of potatoes, onions, and dill pickle relish and mix well.
- Place in a covered dish and put in the fridge. Serve when chilled.
