Servings: 10
- 3 lbs red potatoes
- 2 hard boiled eggs diced
- 1 cup celery about 4 stalks
- 1 cup black olives sliced (about 1/2 of a 6.5 oz can)
- 1/2 cup jarred roasted red bell peppers diced
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp kosher salt or to taste
- 2 tbsp black pepper or to taste
- 1 tbsp Italian parsley, for garnish diced
In a large kettle add the potatoes and enough water to cover about an inch or so. Set stove to high and bring the potato to a steady boil, using a fork to test them for tenderness.
Meanwhile, hard boil the eggs.
When the potatoes are fork tender, and the eggs done, put them in ice baths to stop the cooking.
When ready to make the salad, dice the potatoes and eggs and put them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine. Test and adjust amounts as desired.
Let rest in the refrigerator for at least four hours before serving.
