Ingredients

  • 3 lbs russet potatoes
  • 4 to 5 hard boiled eggs
  • 1 medium onion
  • 3/4 cup miracle whip
  • 4 T white vinegar
  • 3 T milk
  • 2 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1/2 to 3/4 tsp sugar
  • 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Method

  1. Begin by boiling the potatoes in salted water for about 18 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain and let them cool before peeling and chopping them into bite-size pieces.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together the miracle whip, white vinegar, milk, yellow mustard, sugar, black pepper, and salt to make the sauce. Adjust the amounts to your taste.
  3. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on the potatoes and mix in the chopped hard boiled eggs and diced onions.
  4. Pour the sauce over the potato mixture and gently stir to combine.
  5. Refrigerate the potato salad for at least 4 hours to allow the flavors to blend. If left overnight, stir before serving to prevent it from becoming runny.
