I am a huge lover of potato salad. It's one of my favorite foods. Grandmother would make it a lot of times just for me and I loved hers. It was just a basic potato salad, but it was delicious. My Aunt Jan also makes a great potato salad and I use her recipe probably more than anyone's. It's a favorite. This particular recipe is one that I came across in one of my cookbooks. I tagged it for later use. I always mark/tag recipes that I want to try when I read a cookbook. I don't always remember which book the specific recipes are in, but I know they're there somewhere LOL Anyway, a little while after tagging this recipe, Food Lion had 5 lb bags of red potatoes on sale for $1.99. Perfect! I got a bag and figured I would try the recipe. I loved it and will definitely make it again. Hope you enjoy!!
Creole Potato Salad
3 lbs red potatoes, cubed
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup Creole/Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 1/4 tsps garlic salt
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp prepared horseradish
1/4 tsp cayenne
6 hard cooked eggs, chopped
1 mediume sweet onion, diced
Cook potatoes in water until tender - 12 minutes or so. Drain and cool slightly. Mix together mayo and next 6 ingredients. Add potato, eggs and onion to mixture. Toss gently. Serve room temperature or chilled.
I didn't have a picture of the potato salad on its own, but here it is on a plate with my dinner!
