This is a creamy sweeter-style dressing that has lots of zip and it makes a fair amount, feel free to add in some frozen peas, cooked ham or bacon - I have listed the servings at 12-14 but that is only estimated - - use both mayonnaise and salad dressing for this, plan ahead this salad needs to chill for a minimum of 6 or more hours before serving, prep time includes chilling time. Ingredients:
4 lbs red potatoes, peeled (cooked until fork tender, chopped and chilled until cold) |
1 small stalk celery, finely diced |
6 hard-boiled eggs, diced (or sliced with an egg slicer) |
7 green onions, finely chopped |
1 cup mayonnaise (use hellman's mayonnaise) |
1 cup miracle whip |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1 tablespoon cider vinegar |
1/2 cup sweet pickle relish |
1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2-1 teaspoon seasoning salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste) |
12 -15 gherkins, finely chopped (or use 1/2 cup sweet yum-yum pickles chopped) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl combine the cold cubed potatoes with celery, eggs and green onions; toss to combine.
2. In another bowl combine the mayonnaise with salad dressing, sour cream, cider vinegar, sweet pickle relish, mustard, garlic powder, seasoned salt and fresh ground black pepper; whisk or mix with a wooden spoon until completely combined.
3. Pour dressing mixture over the potato mixture and toss to coat.
4. Mix in chopped pickles.
5. Seasoned with more salt and black pepper to taste.
6. Refrigerate for a minimum of 6 hours before serving.
7. Delicious!
