I met my future mother-in-law in 1956. She made a hot potato salad that was delicious and kept really well. I have tweaked it to fit my taste.
Total Time: 1 hr
Yield: about 10
Ingredients:
- 5 large potatoes, cooked, mashed while hot
- 2 boiled eggs, chopped
- 1 cup sweet pickle relish
- 1 medium onion
- 2 stalks celery and/or seed, dried leaves
- 1 Tbsp mustard
- 1/4 cup sugar or Splenda
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup Miracle Whip, light
Steps:
Preparing this with the hot potatoes really brings the variety of taste to blend.
- Cook potatoes until soft. Drain potatoes. Boil eggs 1 minute, remove from heat and cover for 15 minutes and peel. Both of these should be ready about the same time.
- Chop celery and onions while potatoes and eggs are cooking. Measure the pickle relish and other ingredients and have ready to add to hot potatoes
- Mix all ingredients while potatoes are hot! If you like it a little sweeter or more mustard or whatever additions you like.
I have added green olives to this. Or you may add some other salad ingredient.
