Not Your Boring Potato Salad

This was my first time ever making potato salad and I need you to trust me on this:

👉IF YOU DON'T ADD SMOKED PAPRIKA, GARLIC AND SLAT, IT'S NOT WORTH MAKING!

It won’t be addicting.

It won’t be craveable.

It’ll just be… sad.

So let’s not do that.

Ingredients:

4–5 medium potatoes

2–3 cups mayo or Greek yogurt or a combo of both

1 celery stalk

Scallions + onion

4- 5 hard-boiled eggs

Splash of vinegar

Mustard (to taste)

1 tea spoon fresh cracked black pepper

Garlic salt or garlic and salt

Smoked paprika (NON-NEGOTIABLE)

How I made it:

Boil your potatoes until fork-tender, chop them up, throw everything in a bowl, boil, peel and chop up your hard boiled eggs, cut some onion, scallions and celery. Toss it in the bowl and add the rest of the ingredients, mayo, mustard etc. Taste as you go. Add more smoked paprika than feels reasonable. Add garlic and salt like you mean it but don't over do the salt.

Final thoughts:

This is not your bland picnic potato salad.

This is the kind you keep “taste testing” until half the bowl is gone and you don’t even regret it.

Save this. Make it. Don’t skip the spices. 🥄🔥
