5 lb bag white potatoes, cut into chunks
6 hard boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
1 c hellmans mayonnaise (may use more or less...depending on how creamy you want it)
1/4 c yellow mustard
2 Tbsp dill or sweet pickle relish
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
paprika for sprinkling on top

Steps:

1. cut potatoes...rinse and put into large pot. Completely cover potatoes with water. Add a lil salt to the pot. Boil potatoes till tender, drain and let cool. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine chopped eggs, mayo, mustard, pickles, salt and pepper. Mix well. Then add potatoes to the mayo mixture, adding in batches so everything mixes together evenly and well. Top potato salad with paprika before serving. I have also used chopped green olives instead of using pickles and this is very good too!
