Red Hot & Blue's Potato Salad
Ingredients
- 4 lbs Red Bliss potatoes
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup green onion finely chopped
- 1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
- 1 3/4 teaspoons celery seeds
- 1 3/4 teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Steam the potatoes skin-on for approximately 45 minutes (you can boil them, but they tend to be slightly mushier in the end result). Set aside until cool enough to handle. Boil your eggs, then do the same. When cool enough, peel the eggs ONLY (do NOT peel the potatoes -- the skin gives it part of it's unique texture and taste).
- In a large bowl, mix the remaining ingredients together until thoroughly mixed. Chop the potatoes and eggs into bite-size pieces and add to bowl. Mix GENTLY -- you want salad, not mush -- until blended.
- Serve at room temp for up to 2 hours after making -- refridgerate leftovers. It tastes best when room temp, but is delicious cold too -- so if you are making this in advance, it's fine to chill it.

I peel the eggs and put the yolk (chop up whites and add to cut up potatoes) Mash the yolks and I add yellow mustard (small amt) and small amount of cider vinegar. Fold this into rest of Wandas ingreds. Also added a bit of miracle whip to mayo. yummy
