SIMPLE POTATO SALAD FOR TWO



Simple Potato Salad for Two image

This is the same basic recipe my mom has always made. A lot of the measurements are guesses and should be added to taste. You can also add peppers, pickles, celery, etc. I made this in a small batch today, since it's just me. It's a good amount for one or two people to eat a few times. But it's easy enough to double or triple or....you get the idea. I love this because it's what I grew up on and I am not a celery fan and also find most commercial potato salad to be too bland or too sweet.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 yukon gold potatoes, medium to large sized
3 hard-boiled eggs
1/2 cup finely diced onion (to taste)
1/2 tablespoon cider vinegar (to taste)
1/8 teaspoon mustard powder (to taste)
1/8 teaspoon celery seed (to taste)
salt and pepper
3/4 cup mayonnaise (estimate)

Steps:

  • Scrub the potatoes and place in water to cover. Bring to a boil and then cover the pan and lower heat to simmer for about 25 - 30 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender but not falling apart to the touch (but a little overcooked is better than having an uncooked spot in the middles). You can cool the potatoes some by putting them in cold water for about a minute or two.
  • When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into cubes or chunks or quarter slices and put them in a bowl.
  • Sprinkle vinegar over potatoes.
  • Dice up to of the eggs and add. Slice the third and reserve to make decoration for the top of the salad.
  • Add onions, seasonings and the mayonnaise and stir until well incorporated.
  • Decorate top of salad with reserved eggs.
  • Chill to blend all flavors, but also tastes good slightly warm right after you make it!

CREAMY POTATO SALAD



Creamy Potato Salad image

Have you ever posted a recipe and just love reading the reviews for it? This is my signature potato salad. Whenever there is a pot luck function at work, I am TOLD that I have to bring the potato salad. No one else is allowed to and I am never given a choice. Thank you everyone who ever tried this potato salad and for leaving such glowing reviews for it. You all have made me look so good. I personally can not stand eggs or raw onions, so I leave them out but I know most people don't think a potato salad is complete without them. Thanks again for so many wonderful reviews. (psssst....check out my recipe #123107 as well. It shares the dressing with this recipe but tastes much much different because of the different ingredients) Please see Recipe #242966 for bacon bit tips.
