Potato Salad

Red potatoes-cook as many or as few as you will need
Hard boiled eggs-3to 6 depends on the size of your salad
Onion- ½ to whole onion diced
Celery- ½ to whole cup depend on size of salad and your taste
Pickles- I use cucumber chips
Boil potatoes, let cool, peel and cut into small chunks
Peel and add eggs, celery and onion.

Dressing:
Miracle Whip salad dressing
Mustard
Pickle juice
Salt and pepper
Mix 1 cup salad dressing with 1 - 2 Tablespoons Mustard depending on how much of a mustard taste you like. The amount of salad dressing depends on how many potatoes you use. This gives you an approximate ratio. Add about 1/4 cup pickle juice to thin the dressing. Add salt and pepper to taste. Pour dressing over potatoes and mix. If you need more dressing, mix a small amount proportionally. Refrigerate. This is best if made the day before.
