Amazing Potato Salad image

My family loves this potato salad. The bacon and green onions make it so delicious. I was given a vague recipe from a friend who never measured the ingredients. A few years later, I developed this recipe. I don't even like sandwich spread but I love this.

Number Of Ingredients 10

8-10 potatoes, russets (approx 3-3 1/2 lbs), boiled and cut into 3/4 to 1 inch cubes and cooled.
1/2 to 3/4 c mayonnaise (not miracle whip)
1/2 to 3/4 c sandwich spread (not miracle whip but the spread that resembles thousand island dressing)
4-5 green onions chopped
7 slices bacon, fried and crumbled
1 1/2 to 2 Tbsp bacon drippings
1 1/2 Tbsp dill pickle relish or finely chopped dill pickle
1 egg, hard boiled and chopped (i go light on the egg because i'm the only one that likes it)
1/4 tsp salt (to taste)
paprika, sweet mild

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare all ingredients as indicated in the ingredients list. Be sure to cool the potatoes if you would like them to retain their shape or they will be mashed while mixing in the other ingredients.
  • 2. Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
  • 3. Sprinkle with paprika for a little color, cover, and chill until served. It has the best flavor the next day. :)
