Potato Salad Everybody Loves

This is a side dish and it is good! My mother has won everyone over at church and service league with this crowd pleasing potato salad. This creamy, yet flavorful potato salad wins everyone over and is a great side dish with fried chicken, gumbo or barbecue. You can make this dish the day before and the flavors blend!

Ingredients

  • 7-10 medium potatoes of your choice
  • 1/4 cup chopped celery

  • 1 cup mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip)
  • Cajun seasoning to taste
  • 1 small jar pimentos (optional)

Step 3

Add green salad olives, pimentos and all. Add mayonnaise. Grate the eggs into the mixture. Add seasonings a dash or pinch to your taste.
