Normally I want to add things to potato salad recipes, but this one is a keeper. It really is the classic potato salad. For extra crunch feel free to add 1/2 cup of thinly sliced radishes, chopped cucumber, or chopped bell pepper. This recipe says it serves 10, but I don't think so.

Ingredients:
6 medium boiling potatoes (2 pounds)
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise or 1 1/2 cups salad dressing
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon mustard

1 medium onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
4 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
Directions:
1. Heat 1 inch water (salted, if desired) to boiling.
2. Add potatoes. Cover and heat to boiling.
3. Reduce heat to low. Boil gently 30 to 35 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Cool slightly.
4. Cut into cubes (6 cups).
5. Mix mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper in large glass or plastic bowl.
6. Add potatoes, celery, and onion and toss.
7. Stir in eggs.
