- 3 lbs Potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 cup mayo
- 6 eggs hard-boiled
- 2 tbsp sweet relish
- 2 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp old bay seasoning

Begin by washing, peeling, and chopping the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and add salt. Cook for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are fork- tender.
Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them cool completely. Place the potatoes and the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl, season generously with salt and pepper, and mix well. You can smash some of the potatoes for a creamier texture.
Cover and refrigerate for one hour before serving.
- If you want to make it ahead of time and serve it the following day, make sure to add a couple of tbsp of mayo and more spices right before serving.
