Summer is here! At least in my book it is. Time for BBqing, corn on the cob, watermelon and potato salad. A lot of times when you go to the store to get your potato salad it has such a sweet taste to it. Personally I like it tasting fresh! Thats why I love my mommas potato salad so much. I wrote her the other day for the recipe. She does not have an exact recipe but she gave me some guidelines one how to make it. So here we go, this is my first time making it!
Mommas Potato Salad:
Ingredients:
- 8-10 Red Potatos peeled and cubed
- 6 eggs
- Green onions (1 bunch)
- Celery (3 stalks chopped)
- Pickles (3 chopped) Make sure they are Clausens! They are the
best
- 1/2 C. of Mayonaise
First things first peel and chop those potatos. Place them in a large pot with just enough water to cover them. Once the water beings to boil put your time for 10 minutes. In the meantime take 6 eggs and place them in water, bring the water to a boil and set your timer for 10 minutes.
While your eggs and potatoes are boiling you can chop up all your veggies! Once the potatoes are finished drain the water and let them cool down. And when the eggs are finished you can run some cool water on them. Once the eggs are cooled you can peel the shell off and then chop the eggs.
Now that everything is chopped and cooled down you can add all the ingredients together in a bowl. Add 1/2 a cup of mayo. If this does not seem to be enough you could always add more. You can salt to taste. Place the potato salad in the fridge to cool down. Enjoy! Mine is in the fridge as we speak. Can't wait for dinner!
