Ingredients

2 ½ lbs. potatoes (preferably Yukon Gold or red potatoes)
½ cup Hellmann’s Real Mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
¼ cup finely chopped red onion
2 stalks of celery, finely chopped
¾ cup hard-boiled eggs, chopped (about 3 eggs)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh dill (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to whip up a delicious potato salad that your friends and family will love:

Start by washing and peeling the potatoes if desired. Cut them into bite-sized cubes.
Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender but still firm. You want them to hold their shape, so keep an eye on them!
While the potatoes cook, prepare the dressing. In a medium bowl, combine the Hellmann’s Real Mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool for a few minutes. It’s important to let them cool slightly to avoid making the salad too warm and melting the mayonnaise.
In a large bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, chopped red onion, celery, and hard-boiled eggs. Gently mix to combine.
Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and fold it in gently to ensure everything is evenly coated without mashing the potatoes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or even a splash more of vinegar if desired.
Cover and refrigerate the potato salad for at least an hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
Before serving, give it a good stir and garnish with fresh dill if you like. Enjoy your tasty potato salad!
