INGREDIENTS:

[if !supportLists]

• 2 & 1/2 pounds potatoes

• 3/4 cup mayonnaise (for a healthier option, sub with the zest of 1 lemon and plain yogurt)

• 1 tablespoon mustard

• 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

• 1/2 tablespoon dried dill

• 1/2 teaspoon paprika

• 2-3 hard boiled eggs, peeled and chopped

• 1 & 1/2 celery stalks, diced

• 1/4 cup green onion, diced

• Salt and pepper to taste​

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Cut the unpeeled potatoes into quarters and place them in a large stock pot. Fill the pot with cold water until it is 1 inch over the top of the potatoes. Set the pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add 1 tablespoon salt and cook the potatoes for 13-15 minutes, until fork tender.

2. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl mix the mayonnaise, mustard, apple cider vinegar, dill, paprika, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir until smooth. Then chop the eggs, celery, and green onions.

3. Once the potatoes are very tender, drain off all the water. Remove the loose peels and chop the potatoes into 1/2-inch chunks. It's okay if they are soft and crumbly. Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Gently mix in the dressing until it coats the potatoes well. Then stir in the eggs, celery, onions, and dill. Taste, then salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with a sprinkling of dill and paprika.

4. Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
