Classic Potato Salad -

6 medium potatoes (2 lbs)
1 1/4 c. mayo
1 tbsp. mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 c. sliced celery
1/3 c. chopped onion (I used red onion)
1/2 c. chopped sweet or dill pickles/relish (I used sweet relish)
6 hard-cooked eggs, coarsely chopped

In a medium pan place potatoes and a small amount of water to cover. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 20-25 minutes or until just tender. Drain well; cool slightly. Peel and cube the potatoes. ( I peeled them before I cooked them)

Meanwhile, for dressing, in a large bowl combine the mayo, mustard the 1/2 tsp salt and pepper.

Stir in the celery, onion, and pickles. Add the potatoes and eggs. Toss lightly to coat. Cover and chill for 6-24 hours.

I got this recipe out of my Better Homes and Gardens cookbook.
