Homestyle Potato Salad

By kctchr

This Homestyle Potato Salad recipe is tried and true. It comes straight from Mom's recipe box and is always polished off at our family gatherings.

Ingredients

• 5 medium potatoes (red potatoes taste the best)
• 8 eggs, hard boiled (save 2 eggs to use for garnish on salad)
• salt & pepper to taste
• 1/2 c. Mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip)
• 1/2 c. sour cream
• 2 Tbsp. sugar
• mustard, to taste
• 1/2 c. sweet pickle relish (or 5 to 6 diced baby dill pickles, if you don't like it sweet)
• Dill weed or paprika (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Boil potatoes (do not peel) for about 40 minutes until potatoes are tender, but still firm (if you are using red potatoes do it for less time.. 15-20 minutes or so).

Peel and dice potatoes AND 6 eggs. Add salt and pepper and toss. Mix remaining ingredients separately and fold into potato mixture.
