I've made this salad many times and my family loves it. I'm making it for our Father's Day BBQ on Sunday and will try to remember to take a picture.

How To Make garden potato salad

  • 1
    The original recipe also calls for 1/2 cup each of thinly sliced radishes, cucumber and green bell pepper, and one tomato, cut into wedges. I do not add these ingredients because I felt it made the salad too watery, however, you can add them if you wish!
  • 2
    Prepare and cook potatoes; cool slightly and cut into cubes (about 6 cups)
  • 3
    Mix mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
  • 4
    Add potatoes, celery and onion; toss to coat.
  • 5
    Stir in eggs (and radishes, cucumber and bell pepper if you use them).
  • 6
    Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. Garnish with tomato wedges.
