Awesome Potato Salad

I love this potato salad! Make a few hours ahead of time or let chill overnight to allow flavors to mingle. If you like sweet, use sweet pickles or add sugar.

Serves 6

5 medium red or new potatoes, boiled until done, chop into bite sized pieces

4 eggs, boil 10 minutes, peel chop into smallish pieces

1 T or so Tabasco

3 ribs celery, chopped fine

3 half sour pickles, chopped fine

Handful of parsley, chopped fine

Small red onion, chopped fine

½ bunch of scallion, chopped fine

1/2-1 cup mayonnaise

1 juice from lemon

Salt and pepper

Black or green olives, chopped (optional)

While potatoes and eggs cooking, mix all vegetables. Cut potatoes and add lemon when hot. Mix Tabasco with a bit of mayonnaise. Mix eggs and potatoes with vegetables, add salt and pepper. Stir in mayo and Tabasco and extra mayo. Chill.
