Ingredients

  • 8 russet potatoes medium sized
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle juice
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1/2 cup Miracle Whip
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons red onions finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup dill pickles chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 hard-boiled eggs peeled and chopped

Instructions

  • Place a large pot of cold water on the stovetop. Add the potatoes (unpeeled), and bring it up to a boil. Then lower the heat to a simmer and continue cooking until tender, about 35-40 minutes.
  • Drain and cool the potatoes, then peel and chop them.
  • Place the chopped potatoes in a large bowl. Add the pickle juice and give the potatoes a minute to absorb the juice.
  • Add the mayo, Miracle Whip, mustard, red onions, pickles, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Add the chopped eggs last. Fold them in so they don’t all break up.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. If the salad becomes too dry, add a bit more mayo or Miracle Whip before serving.
