Ingredients
- 2 lbs Russet potatoes cut into evenly sized 1-2 inch pieces
- 7 eggs hard boiled
- 1 cup celery diced
- 1 cup red onion diced
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise 5.5 oz
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
- 1 teaspoon ground mustard
Instructions
- Hard Boil Eggs: Set a large pot of water to high and bring to a boil. Add eggs and return to a boil and then set a timer for 11 minutes. Once done, don't drain, but instead remove eggs with a slotted spoon and add to a bowl. Add ice and cold water to the bowl of eggs to stop the cooking process.
- Cook Potatoes: Use the same pot and water you used for the eggs and add the potatoes and turn back to high, bring to a boil, and set a timer for 10 minutes. Boil until potatoes are fork tender, but not too soft.
- Prep Mayonnaise and Veggies: While the water is coming to a boil and eggs and potatoes are boiling, chop your celery and onion and prep the mayonnaise. Add mayonnaise to a small bowl, add spices, and mix well and set aside.
- Cool Potatoes: Once potatoes are done, drain and then add to a bowl. Let cool on the counter for 10 minutes and then cover and add the bowl to the fridge and cool for another 45-50 minutes.
- Prep Salad: Once eggs and potatoes are cooled, chop eggs and add to a large bowl with potatoes, celery, onion, and mayonnaise. Mix well and serve!

Notes
- Storage
- Storage
- Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Prep in Advance
- Prep in Advance
- This salad is great to prepare in advance. You can cook potatoes and eggs and prep the onions and celery and mayo and store them all separately up to 3 days in advance and just assemble it all before serving.
- Substitutions
- Substitutions
- Potatoes: While Russets are definitely the classic for a mayo-based potato salad, you can definitely use any of your other favorites, too. Just be sure to check for doneness as times may vary.
- Onion: Yellow or white are great options, too.
- Ground Mustard: Yellow mustard will have a milder taste and will make this an even brighter yellow, but you can substitute 1:1.
