Creamy Summer Potato Salad

While out on the beach or just grilling with some friends, this potato salad will knock your socks off. It goes well with any BBQ chicken, steak or burgers. I like it with gumbo though. Give it a try and I know you will fall in love.

Ingredients:

4 #s Yukon gold potatoes
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
2 celery stalks, finely chopped
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup mayo
3 T whole grain mustard
1 T red wine vinegar
1 T salt plus 1 t
1 1/2 t paprika
1 t black pepper
2 T fresh chopped parsley

Peel the potatoes and cut into medium dice. Transfer the potatoes to a pot of cold water. Bring to a boil until fork tender. About 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and cool to room temp. Place the potatoes in a mixing bowl and partially smash so they are still a little chunky. Add the scallions, celery, onion, mayo, mustard, vinegar, and all the spices. Mix together well. Taster for seasonings. Add salt as desired.
