Old Fashioned Potato Salad

This is for everyone who loved loved loved my potato salad at Aunt Sandra's and Uncle Billy's cookout.

5 potatoes
3 eggs
1/4 t garlic powder
1/4 t celery salt
1 T prepared mustard
ground black pepper to taste
1/4 C mayonnaise

1. Rub oil on potatoes. Puncture them with fork. Place in zip lock bag and puncture holes in the bag as well. Heat in microwave for approximately 10 minutes.
2. Cool potatoes. Peel and cube.
3. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil; cover, remove from heat and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remobe from hot water, cool, peel and chop.
4. In a large bowl, combine potatoes, eggs, garlic powder, celery salt, mustard, black pepper and mayo. Mix together well and refrigerate until chilled.


** I also added fresh onion chives that I am growing. :)

The real recipe called for relish, chopped onions and chopped celery, but Wayne dislikes all of those so I discarded those items. But even so, it turned out wonderful!!! Hope you make it and enjoy! Let me know how it turns out for ya!
