Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place red potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender but firm, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
  2. Peel the potatoes once cool enough to handle, then dice them into bite-sized chunks.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced potatoes, diced celery, finely chopped dill pickles, drained and diced pimientos, diced hard-boiled eggs, and chopped green pepper.
  4. In a small separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, prepared mustard, and salt until smooth and well combined.
  5. Pour the mayonnaise dressing over the potato mixture and gently fold until all ingredients are evenly coated.
  6. Transfer the salad to a serving bowl.
  7. Sprinkle the top with paprika for color.
  8. Arrange the reserved green pepper strips in the center of the bowl in a wheel-spoke pattern for garnish.
  9. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld before serving.
