3 hard-boiled eggs, peeled, chopped
2/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill

  1. I yellow potatoes instead of the red-skinned and omitted the Dijon mustard. The result is delicious! Excellent potato salad recipe and it would be a great dish to bring to a BBQ.
