This Potato Salad is an easy and comforting side for any protein you choose to barbecue or bake. We’ve enjoyed it with hamburgers and smoked pork. Great for a picnic, potluck or barbecue.

Ingredients:

• 1-1/2 pounds of small red potatoes
• 4 eggs hard boiled
• 2 stalks of celery, diced
• 1/2 small white onion diced
• 1/4-1/2 cup cooked bacon bits
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 or 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
• 1 handful chopped fresh parsley
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Method:

1. Boil unpeeled potatoes in salted water until fork tender, drain and chop into bite sized pieces and add into large bowl.
2. Shell and dice the eggs and add to the potatoes.
3. Add the diced celery and onion to the bowl.
4. While the potatoes and eggs are still hot add the mayonnaise and mustard and mix well.
5. Mix in the parsley.
6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
7. Cover and store in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Because you cook the potatoes in salted water you might not need too much extra salt for the finished product. I added a 1/4 teaspoon of salt and pepper to start and then tasted to see if it needed more.
