American Potato Salad

This American Potato Salad is a great recipe to make when you are planning a barbecue or cookout. It is very filling and makes 12 servings which means it is a great side dish when you are cooking for a crowd. There are many variations of potato salad and there is no one correct way to make it.

My recipe combines potatoes (of course!) with eggs, mayo, onion, green pepper, celery, salt and pepper to make the creamiest, tastiest potato salad you’ll taste! Some people opt for potato salad without mayonnaise, but I think the mayo makes it and couldn’t imagine eating a mayo-less salad.

To make my version of American Potato Salad, you will need the following ingredients:

So, how do you make American Potato Salad?

Steps to make American Potato Salad

1	Boil the potatoes	30
Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the potatoes and cook them until they are tender, but still firm. This should take about 15-20 minutes. Drain them and once they have cooled down, cut them into cubes.
2	Cook the eggs	15
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Once the water has come to a boil, take off the heat and cover with a lid. Allow the eggs stand in the hot water for about 10-12 minutes.
3	Slice the eggs	5
Take the eggs out of the hot water. Allow the eggs to cool. Peel and chop.
4	Combine the potatoes and eggs	2
Mix the potatoes and eggs together in a large salad bowl.
5	Add the remaining ingredients and season	3
Stir in the mayonnaise, chopped onion, green onion, green bell pepper, and sliced celery. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
6	Chill	12h
Cover the potato salad and chill in the refrigerator for a number of hours or overnight.
7	Serve
