I make my mothers recipe. It is an amish version of potato salad.
10 lbs cooked potatoes diced
1 1/2 cups chopped celery
1 dozen hard boiled eggs chopped
1 lb bacon fried crispy and cut up
1 1/2 cups diced onion
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup cider vinegar
1 quart mayo
salt and pepper to taste
It is a sweet sour type dressing. Best if made the day before.
My mother also added the bacon drippings....I omit that part ! ! !
But it sure tasted good ! ! !

YES - some one said "BACON". Add it to the mix and some on top with the chopped eggs and paprika. Also, like to add chopped sweet pickles or relish.

Do you have to use a washtub to mix this in??? That's a lot of potato salad!

My recipe is simple...just potatoes, mashed with butter & milk, salt, pepper, Miracle Whip type salad dressing, mustard, dill pickles and onions...No eggs for us!
