Mustard Potato Salad

Potato Salad is a delicious side dish and can be served with many meals.  There are all different kinds of ways to prepare potato salad, this is how that I go about fixing the salad.

Utensils Needed:

2 Large Cooking Pans
Sharp Kitchen Knife
Vegetable Peeler
Cutting Board
1 Large Mixing Bowl
1 Large Food Container with Lid
2 or 3 Teaspoons
1 Large Mixing Spoon
Kitchen Strainer
Assorted Measuring Cups

Ingredients Needed:

7 or 8 Good Sized Potatoes
Cold Water
1/4 Cup Yellow Mustard
1 Cup Mayo (might need more if salad is not creamy enough)
Green Olives - Sliced in Half  (for decorating the top of the salad)
Paprika - (for sprinkling it on the top of salad)
2 to 3 Tablespoons Pickle Relish
5 Boiled Eggs - (diced)
1/4 Cup Minced Onions - any kind
1/4 Cup Finely Diced Green Bell Pepper
Salt and Black Pepper

Directions:

Take the vegetable peeler and peel the potatoes.  Place them in the kitchen strainer and rinse with cold water.  Dice the potatoes into bite size pieces.  Put cold water in large pan filling it about half full, and add the diced potatoes.  Boil the potatoes over medium heat until tender.  Drain.

Put cold water in the other pan and boil the eggs.  Peel, dice and set aside.
(I add salt to the water when I am boiling eggs, it makes them peel better)

In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients except the green olives and the paprika.  Mix the potato salad well.  Place the half green olives on the top of the potato salad.  Sprinkle the salad with Paprika.
