Kraft Kitchens Tips

Serving Suggestion

For a great summer meal, serve this classic potato salad with grilled chicken breasts and a fresh fruit salad.

Picnic Safety Tip

When taking food to a picnic, do so in an insulated bag with a reusable ice pack. If you don't have any reusable ice packs, freeze individual juice boxes the night before the picnic. When you're ready to go, pack the frozen juice boxes around the foods in the cooler. The juice boxes will keep your food cold and will be thawed when you get to the picnic to serve as cold drinks for the kids.

Substitutes

Substitute MIRACLE WHIP Dressing for the mayo, GREY POUPON Dijon Mustard for the yellow mustard and 1/2 cup CLAUSSEN Sweet Pickle Relish for the dill pickle relish.

Actually what I expected. I used a little less egg though.

I don't usually like anything with raw onion, or the dill pickly relish. I tried making it anyway using all the ingredients. I absolutely love it so much, I've made it several times. This is one of my favorites now.

I took this to a 4th of July event last year and am making it again this year. It was a hit!

It would be really great if they told you how long to cook the potatoes for !?!

Really great especially if using fingerling or the fancy baby potatoes starting to become available. The extra cost is worth it for this. An earlier version of this recipe also called for 1/2 teaspoon salt to be mixed with the mayo, etc; I always add it.

My family loves this recipe. I use light Miracle Whip, chopped cucumber and a pinch of salt. Delicious!
