Description
This potato salad is made extra special with the addition of crabmeat. It is a great addition to any picnic or potluck. It is a family favorite for good reason.
Ingredients
4 pounds potatoes, cooked, peeled, warm*
6 hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups dried macaroni, cooked and drained
1/4 cup minced onion
1/4 cup sweet relish
1 carrot, grated
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1 6-ounce can crabmeat, drained
1/2– 3/4 cup mayonnaise
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Cut the potatoes into ¾” dice. Place in a large bowl.
Add the remaining ingredients, starting with ½ cup mayonnaise and increasing to achieve desired consistency. The potatoes will breakdown a little as you mix it.
Taste and adjust for seasoning as needed.
Potato salad can be served warm. Otherwise, refrigerate until ready for serving.
Notes
*I prefer a waxy potato like Yukon Golds or Red Bliss rather than a starchy potato like a Russet (which tend to fall apart when the salad is mixed).
