    If you like you can also add crispy bacon (crumbled) on top. I don't put the onion in anymore because my system doesn't like them anymore. Also instead of adding the whites of the boiled eggs I just use the yoke part. You may if you like also add a little mustard to the sauce mixture. If you like mustard in your potato salad you can also add a teaspoon or so to the sauce mixture. This is a very easy recipe, you can mix other ingredience as to your own tastes. I'm one of those old country cooks that doesn't measure things much I just add a little this and that till it suits my taste. I'm always creating something, usually in the dessert catagory.
