Ingredients

  • 5 large potatoes
  • 3 hard-boiled eggs peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup celery finely diced
  • 1/3 cup red onion finely diced
  • 1/2 cup dill relish
  • 4 heaping tablespoons Mayo or Miracle Whip
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup bacon finely diced (optional)

Instructions

  • Place your potatoes into a large pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15 minutes or until fork tender. Drain the water and allow to cool just enough to handle. Peel and chop into fairly decent sized pieces.
  • Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and stir until fully combined. Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least 4 hours prior to serving.

Notes

If you find your salad dry, add Mayo or Miracle whip as needed.
