I only have 7 ingredients for my creamy potato salad. And I NEVER put pickles or onions in mine. That’s just wrong!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Weekday Chef’s Creamy Potato Salad with Bacon! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
This is one of my kids’ favorite things that I make for BBQ dinners….great for summer picnics too. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

My 7 ingredients are: Potatoes, eggs,  bacon, celery, mustard, mayo, and salad seasoning. These 7 yummy things makes a great potato salad. But don’t eat it that often because it is very high in calories and the egg yolks aren’t so good for your arteries. But it’s great for a special Summer BBQ.
      
I like to use either red, new potatoes, or Yukon Gold potatoes. Both just seem creamier to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
And of course bacon makes everything a little bit better, now doesn’t it? <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

If I use the red, new potatoes, I don’t peel off the skins, ever. But sometimes I do with the Yukon Gold, if I’m not feeling too lazy.
Potato Salad Ingredients List:<\/span><\/b>
13 to 15 small and medium potatoes cut up into bite size chunks so it fills a big salad bowl<\/span>
7 eggs (boiled with the potatoes, then chopped up)<\/span>
1 1\/4 cups of good quality mayo<\/span>
3 Tablespoons regular French’s Mustard<\/span>
4-5 pieces of bacon cooked and crumbled<\/span>
3-4 stalks of celery finely sliced (I like that bit of crunch)<\/span>
5-7 shakes (to taste) of Salad Seasoning (about 2 teaspoons)<\/span>

Seasoning salt and pepper if you need more flavor<\/span>
Top with a few shakes of parsley flakes<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
It’s hard to find this stuff sometimes, but it MAKES every single salad better, pasta, potato, spinach…I use it a LOT! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The best potatoes to use are these red, new potatoes. Just leave the skins on! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Yukon Gold also make great potato salads…leave skins on or peel as you please…I peeled mine for this salad. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
It’s a great side dish. And it tastes even better the next day when all the seasonings have melded together as leftovers!  <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
