Amazing Potato Salad


I found this recipe in my food and wine magazine back in june 1997. The lady who created it is named elizabeth. I have been making it this way since then. I have made it for parties and it is so liked by everyone that most people leave with the recipe. I hope you all enjoy this as much as we have. Note: cook time and prep time does not include cooling times for eggs and potatoes. Don't let the amount of servings scare you, i normally reduce the amounts depending on how many people i am feeding. Just cut everything in half.
