Ingredients

Servings

  • 1 celery diced, stalk
  • 1 tablespoon green onion chopped
  • 1 tablespoon parsley chopped
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup mustard or use whole grain - or more to taste, Creole style

  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

  1. 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.
