POTATO SALAD

Potato salad is one of those common picnic dishes.  It goes great with BBQ.  Great cold side that last for several days.  Many people try to hard to make this difficult.  It is just potato salad.
I know that I have been invited to get togethers, just so I could bring the potato salad.

POTATO SALAD
3 pounds of potatoes (or more)
3 boiled eggs diced small - use a egg slicer, definitely worth the $3 spent to get one
1 cup onion diced small
1 cup mayo
1 cup regular yellow mustard
1/2 cup dill pickles, diced small
tops of 3 green onion, sliced thin
3 Tbl horseradish (optional)
2 stalks of celery, diced
1 cup of sour cream (optional)

Peel, then boil potatoes for 15 minutes on high. Drain.  Place 1/4 of the potatoes in a bowl and mash. Add the other ingredients and mix well.  Check for salt, add lots of black pepper, dash of garlic powder, sprinkle of cayenne, pinch of white pepper.  Mix.  When potatoes are cool, add to the mayo mixture.  Refrigerate overnight.  Makes alot.  Keeps for 7 days....and gets better each day.
In the picture, the pickles may look funny. I used pickle okra instead of pickles.
