No act of love however small, is ever wasted

No frozen potato taste! This is a wonderfully easy potato salad to make. No disappointments, such a great taste, promise!!
The recipe is below.

32 oz bag frozen diced potatoes
1/4 cup water
Add water to potatoes, cover tightly with film wrap and microwave 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. Potatoes should be hot and fully cooked.
Whisk together: 2 tblsp. apple cider vinegar, 1 tblsp. yellow mustard, 1-1/2 tsp. of salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Pour these combined ingredients over the hot potatoes and mix thoroughly. Refrigerate until totally cool. It will take 5 to 6 hours.
While the potatoes are cooling mix together 5 chopped hard boiled eggs I found 5 made it richer and I liked it more), 1 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup chopped celery and 1/3 cup chopped onions. Set in fridge to cool along side the potatoes. When potatoes have fully cooled, add the egg and mayo mixture. Mix well and enjoy!!!

Hi everybody this is Linda and welcome back to my kitchen hence the cook today we’re going to make some simple and easy potato salad I’ve told you all before I don’t make good potato salad but I’ve made this recipe before and it’s very good it’ll be easy for Memorial Day

Fourth of July any family get-together or just for yourself so this is a 32 ounce bag the recipe called for southern hash brown diced potatoes but I didn’t find any I just found these diced hash brown potatoes and you need a 32 ounce bag and you’re gonna put them in this

Bowl if there’s any clump together get them get them separated and into that you’re going to add a quarter of a cup of just water now I’m going to cover this real tightly with a plastic wrap and I’m gonna put it in the microwave for 15 to 20 minutes or until it gets

Hot and totally thought out and you’re gonna halfway through you’re gonna stir it so I’ll bring you back we’re back i microwaved mine a total of 16 minutes and I stirred it halfway through at 8 minutes I took it out and started and it is totally hot and cooked now while that

Was cooking I whisk together 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar don’t use white two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon of yellow mustard like you would put on a hot dog a teaspoon and a half of salt and a quarter of a teaspoon of pepper and I whisked all that

Together and it took a whisk to get that mustard to mix and this is going in this potato salad well what’s going to be potato salad it’s not potato salad yet now this isn’t something that you can make the day of unless you get up mighty

Early it comes on this has got to go in the refrigerator covered until it’s totally cool so I’m mixing this together and I’m being a little careful because it’s hot and I don’t want it all to crush up I’m going to cover it again and I’m going to leave it in the refrigerator

Probably about five or six hours but if you want to make it do this the night before you can and just leave it in there all night so this is our next step all right I’m going to cover it up put it in the fridge and we’ll be back sorry about that

Aren’t our potatoes are in the refrigerator cooling and while they’re cooling I went ahead and mix this up I’m trying to get ahead of myself so that I don’t have as much to do on a holiday or when I’m having company and this is four chopped hard-boiled eggs 1 cup of

Mayonnaise 1/3 of a cup of chopped onions and a half a cup of chopped celery and I mixed it all together and I just got it sitting in the refrigerator till my potatoes are ready so we’ll be back when everything gets ready all right we’re back and my potatoes are

Totally cool it took between five and six hours in the fridge and if you have glass shelves be sure and put it on a put your hot bowl on a towel or a pot holder or something to absorb some of the heat because you don’t want to crack

Your your shelves your shelving alright now remember this is the stuff this is the mixture that I had done earlier which is one cup of mayonnaise four chopped hardboard up below eggs 1/2 a cup of celery and a third of a cup of onions and I’m going to pour it in spend

In the fridge too so it’s good and cold I’m gonna put this in here as well there we go and I’m gonna start mixing it in Sam’s here to taste it I sure AM I love potato salad good potato salad I hope you’ll like this you’ve had it before

Ones my loyal standby subs I’m trying to get this mixed in I’ll write this recipe down below and the way I mixed it up because it’s easier and it wasn’t in the original directions this was a pillsbury favorite recipe alright I think I got it pretty well mixed in

Like the celery and onion potatoes very good yeah if y’all try this and make it and taste it you know before you add any relishes mother sighs you don’t need it I gotta say one more thing before I go I was in there watching the news tonight and somebody had pickpocketed a dwarf

  1. Definitely will have to try this by the way have you heard from Phyllis Stokes it was cancer in her liver she's going to be going through radiation and I think chemo also thought you might want to know

  2. As usual, it looks great! I will give it a go this summer! Linda, you inspired me, not to make potato salad but macaroni salad. I've had a taste for it lately, so i mixed up some English salad cream and went at it! Finely chopped celery, diced scallion, cut up some small green olives with pimento, cayenne peppe, black pepper, and sweet pickle relish and elbow macaroni. I can't wait until it's ready to eat!

  3. I have never heard of using frozen potatoes for potato salad, but this recipe looks wonderfully easy and fairly good proof! We are fans of sweet pickle relish and not of celery, so I would have to adapt it just a wee bit for us. But other than that, this will be going on my shopping list next week. It's just turned summer here and it's perfect weather for this salad. I just subscribed to your channel and I'm looking forward to seeing more of the recipes you have on your website.

  4. Actually slightly warm potatoes absorb the rest of your ingredients. I’ve always done that and seems to meld better.

  5. Linda, I think I remember you having a newer kind of pressure cooker. I’m hearing about quick pots and instapots and am confused. Can you give me some guidance?

  6. My oldest girl Toni (Antonia Suzanne age 22) made potato salad last night. We will have to try this one next time! It looks yummy!

  7. Hi Ms. Linda and Mr. Sam! Yum! That looks good! I love potato salad! easy to make! I put relish in mine, BUT like you said, it may not need it! LOL SAM! That was funny!

  8. Gonna try this one. Hopefully my kid and husband will like. They love my potatoes salad and when I try anything else they , well my kid, gets ticked..lol

  9. This is something new, but will be putting in the sweet relish and sugar, and thanks.. different opinions.. But l will try the hash brown cause this is a life saver from peeling the potatoes, maybe a little of your way and the rest with the others ingredients that l grew up with. Again thanks you and your husband 😊👏👏👏

  10. Hi, Linda. I made the potato salad yesterday, and we absolutely loved it! Not only is it delicious, it truly is easy, plus using light mayo kept the calorie count down. Thanks for another winner. 🙋💝💐

  11. I’m just starving myself because I’m going through your older videos I’ve missed. 🤣
    This potato salad looks really delish and I can’t wait to try it!
    Thanks so much.
    Kathy

  12. Oh my, using those frozen potatoes is something I never considered, but now I will! TYVM! My version of potato salad is off the charts unique, but great if you love the ingredients: celery, onions, cukes, dill pickles, green olives, maybe capers — along with the usual mayo (or your sub and/or mix of sour cream, mayo, yogurt), mustard, and I like to decorate with chives (and, for myself, chile peppers). Mom used to add sliced hard-boiled eggs on top, with paprika, but I like them halved, on the side — where I could eat half a dozen, easily. FTR, I'll eat any potato salad that isn't sweet!

  13. Potato salad looks great. I would add dill relish.

    Sam spoke of his mother's recipe. Is he your nephew, if I may ask. Thot maybe he was your son till he mentioned his mom. Thanks.
    Have a great weekend.

  14. That’s a great recipe. I’m going to make it and call it Linda’s potato salad. You know Linda, Sam sound’s like a sweetheart and very intelligent man. So amicable. Both of you sound like a very content loving couple. Ive never had that. Behind closed door’s! Both of you are blessed. I’m envious. Awww Sam You 2 make me cry. ❤️. I tell everyone’s Dog joke. I lost my daughter year on top of everything else and I’ll never be the same. No respect or manner’s anymore. God bless my friend’s

  15. ITS A CLASSOC RECIPE AND SO EASY USONG HASH BROWNS. THANK YOU! PEELING ALL THOSE POTATOES AND BABYSITTING THEM WHILE THEY COOK SO THEY DONT GET MUSHY. THIS FIXES ALL YHOSE ISSUES. AND THE POTATOES ARE CUT IN BITE SIZE PIECES ALREADY. COULD NOT BE EASIER!

  16. New subscriber here. Easy is what I want too! Also, I wonder how it was with sweet relish? That’s the only thing I’d add too. Thanks Linda for your work in putting your videos together.

  17. Dear Linda, I was referring to your youtube page. You see I saw this recipe on my phone I was unable to obtain the direction on the phone. When I went to your youtube page I honesty could not locate it. I used the search engine feature locating the recipe
    sorry if this upset you in any way Like I said in another correspondence on how much I enjoy your videos

  18. Potato salad is the best, can't wait to make this recipe. Thank you for another great recipe love you bunches xoxo. Blessings for you and your family. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

  19. Hi Linda, I FINALLY got around to making this, and I swear I may never go back to my mom’s recipe again! I LOVED this, very easy, great taste, I am honestly so pleased with the final result! I ate the whole batch in two days, so I’ll have to make more for the weekend. Just wanted to say thanks for sharing, have a great day!
