Summer Potato Salad

I’ve made a lot of potato salads over the years, usually going back to this one ~ or close to it.

This is our favorite, loaded with sweet pickles, celery, red onion, pimentos, black olive slices, and Miracle Whip with a dab of mustard.  

It’s a summer standard to go with most any meat or seafood from the grill.

Potato salad is the perfect side ~ it’s simple, easy and just like the potato salad our mom’s used to make.  

Here’s the recipe:

Summer Potato Salad

6 red potatoes, peeled and cut in half

1 teaspoon celery seed
Salt and seasoned pepper, to taste
