Dilled Potato Salad

Recipe By: Damsel in dis Dress
Categories: potatoes, salads/dressings, side dishes

8 medium russet potatoes -- diced
4 large eggs -- hard cooked
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
3 tablespoon dill pickle juice -- *
1/2 cup dill pickles -- minced
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 salt and pepper -- to taste

* If red potatoes are used, reduce pickle juice to 2 tbsp.

1. Hard cook the eggs; chill, remove shells, and cut in half. Remove yolks and dice the whites. Set aside
2. Cook potatoes in water until desired tenderness. Drain; rinse under cold, running water to stop the cooking process.
3. While potatoes are cooking, combine mashed egg yolks with remaining ingredients.
4. Combine chilled potatoes and the sauce mixture. Add egg whites.
5. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight, to allow flavors to blend.
6. Check for moisture. If too dry, add more pickle juice or milk until desired consistency is achieved.
7. Sprinkle paprika on top just prior to serving, if desired.

VARIATIONS:
- Use dill pickle relish instead of chopped pickles.
- Use fresh minced onions in place of onion powder.
- Add finely chopped celery for crunchiness.
- Add a dash of tabasco sauce for a little extra zing.

This one will cost five bucks.

Cut up some onions, green or whatever colored peppers, and mushrooms. Pour some sort of oil salad dressing and nuke them for 5 minutes.

Cut up beef or other meat. Soak in some wine. Seasonings can be added.

Thread the meat and veggies on skewers and grill. Serve on pita bread.

Nuke 'em for five minutes? Why?

I have the flat metal skewers, and it's easier to put the veggies on them when they have been nuked. You probably wouldn't have to do this step if you use the small skewers. When I did this before, with the raw veggies, they would sometimes break into pieces. There is a marinade for the meat, and another one for the vegetables. For the meat, I often use some soy and herbs, some wine and salt & pepper. It really is touch and go, and you can use whatever methods work for you. Whatever, it is a meal that most people will enjoy.
