C.J.'S DILL PICKLE AND OLIVE POTATO SALAD



C.j.'s Dill Pickle and Olive Potato Salad image

A different twist on potato salad - more kosher dill, olive and parsley flavors than mayo. NOT the typical sweet standard. My Dad, C.J., made this ever since I can remember. A family favorite - no reunion is complete without it! TIP: Slightly undercook the potatoes. If mushy, they don't chop well nor hold their texture. Also, add the olive and pickle juice sparingly to taste. Secret to this dish is NOT TOO WET!!!

LELA'S FOURTH OF JULY POTATO SALAD



Lela's Fourth of July Potato Salad image

This is my mother's potato salad recipe. Every 4th of July she would make this potato salad for around 30 to 40 people. The recipe calls for ten pounds of potatoes. The sweet onions, dill pickles, and green and black olives give the recipe a wonderful flavor. Now it is always a must-do on the 4th of July. See footnotes for smaller version.

My mother's potato salad -- chunky and flavorful -- a favorite at our family gatherings. Best if made the day before. Season with salt carefully because the olives will be salty.
