Nothing says American food like a good old fashioned potato salad. It is great for barbecues, picnics, casual suppers or as a potluck dish. I love potato salad and make this particular recipe a lot. In the summer, I make a large batch of this salad at the beginning of the week and the kids will munch on it all week long. Of course, it goes really well as a side with brats, burgers and hot dogs, but it is also is great with steak and chicken.
Everyone needs to have at least one fantastic potato salad recipe that they can rely on and this one has become my go to recipe. It is easy to make and delicious with eggs, celery and dill pickles.
When I was at the store the other day I found a jar of, get this, dill relish! I don’t know if I have had my head in the sand, but I have never seen that before. I bought a few jars and that is what I used in this recipe. You can just chop up pickles, but dill relish is a great time saver.
Just in time for Memorial Day weekend, serve our Chicken Wings as an appetizer, then serve this salad alongside our Grilled Corn with burgers and hot dogs for a festive holiday menu.
