Good picnic food
Ingredients
- 5 lbs redskin potatoes, UNpared and diced shopping list
- 1 bunch green onions, cleaned and sliced shopping list
- 2 medium to large cucumbers, pared, seeded and diced shopping list
- 5 stalks celery, thinly sliced shopping list
- 1 small jar, diced pimiento, drained shopping list
- 6 eggs, hard boiled, chopped shopping list
- 1/2 lb bacon, fried crisp, well drained and crumbled shopping list
- 1 pint real mayonnaise shopping list

- 1/4 cup spicey brown mustard shopping list
- 1 cup whole milk or half 'n' half shopping list
- 2 tbsps dried dill weed shopping list
- salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Put potatoes in a spaghetti pot w/strainer, and cover with cold water. Bring to boil and reduce heat to medium low; cook for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain potatoes and fill pot with cold water again to stop the cooking; drain again very well. Spread out potatoes on sheet pans and chill
- When ready, place potatoes in a VERY large bowl with the remaining vegetables, chopped boiled eggs and crumbled bacon.
- Prepare the dressing with mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, milk, dill weed, salt and pepper. Combine with the vegetable/egg mixture and allow to chill for several hours or overnight for the flavors to blend.
- If serving on a buffet or at a picnic, keep chilled by setting serving bowl down inside a larger bowl filled with ice.
- YIELD: 20 to 25 servings
- SUGGESTED GO WITH: Fried chicken
- NOTE: By calling for 5 pounds of potatoes, this is obviously a recipe with proportions for a crowd. It can easily be halved.
