My favorite creamy potato salad recipe with fork tender potatoes mixed with mayo, Creole mustard and Cajun seasonings, the perfect side dish or with gumbo.

Ingredients
- 2 pounds red potatoes scrubbed and cut into 1-inch pieces (You can use yellow potatoes instead - peeled, if desired, or leave unpeeled)
- 1/2 bell pepper diced (or use a jalapeno)
- 1 stalk celery diced
- 1 tablespoon chopped green onion
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup Creole mustard or use whole grain - or more to taste
- 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 6 hard boiled eggs chopped
Instructions
- Add the cubed potatoes to a pot and cover with water. Add a bit of salt and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, or until fork tender. Drain and cool slightly.
- To a large bowl, add the bell pepper, celery, green onion, parsley, mayo, mustard, and seasonings. Stir to combine.
- Stir in the cooked potatoes to completely coat them in the creamy mixture.
- Gently stir in the chopped hard boiled eggs. Mix or mash the potato salad to your preferred consistency. Do you want it chunky? Creamy? Both?
- Taste and adjust for salt.
- Serve, or cover and refrigerate to serve chilled.
