I love shortcut recipes - the ones that start out with a packaged mix. This potato salad recipe use a package of scalloped potatoes for the base. From an old Quick Cooking magazine, submitted by Myra Innes of Auburn, KS. Ingredients:
1 (5 ounce) package scalloped potatoes mix |
3 2/3 cups water, divided |
2 tablespoons butter |
2/3 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
2 hard-cooked eggs, chopped |
paprika (optional) |
Directions:
1. Set aside sauce packet from potato package.
2. In a large saucepan, bring potatoes and 3 cups water to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
3. Rinse with cold water; drain thoroughly. Transfer potatoes to a bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
4. In a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in contents of reserved sauce packet. Gradually add the remaining water; stir until smooth. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat.
5. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
6. Stir in mayonnaise and mustard; gently stir into potatoes.
7. Add eggs and sprinkle with paprika if desired.
