Instructions
Creating Salmon Potato Salad with Eggs is easy when you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Potatoes: Scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then place them in a pot of salted water. Boil until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
2. Cook the Eggs: In a separate pot, place the eggs. Cover with water and bring to a rolling boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and cover. Let sit for 10-12 minutes, then cool under cold running water and peel.
3. Drain and Cool Potatoes: Once cooked, drain the hot water from the potatoes. Allow them to cool for a few minutes before peeling (if desired) and chopping them into bite-sized pieces.
4. Prep the Salmon: Open the can of salmon and drain the liquid. If using fresh salmon, grill or bake it until cooked through, then flake it into chunks.
5. Mix the Dressing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Adjust to your taste preference.
6. Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped potatoes, salmon, and chopped hard-boiled eggs to the dressing. Gently fold the mixture to combine, being careful not to mash the potatoes too much.
7. Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. This helps the flavors meld together.
8. Garnish: Before serving, garnish with freshly chopped parsley and green onions for an extra pop of flavor and color.
