Liz’s Potato Salad


5 pound bag potatoes (hold back about 4)
1 c Miracle Whip
8 oz sour cream
4 inches peeled cucumber (cut slices in half and then in half again)
1 tsp yellow mustard
2 tsp red wine vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp dried dill weed
2 hardboiled eggs, sliced into ovals
few shakes of paprika


  1. Put the potatoes (whole and unpeeled) in a big stock pot and cover with water.  Boil for about 20 minutes, then start checking to see if done with fork.  When tender, drain and set aside to cool slightly
  2. In a small bowl, combine Miracle Whip, sour cream, cucumber, mustard, red wine vinegar, sugar and dill weed
  3. When potatoes are still warm, peel them and cut into cubes and place in a large bowl
  4. Combine the potatoes with the mayo mixture.  If too dry add more of mixture (minus sour cream), if too wet add a couple more potatoes. Remember it will thicken when sitting in fridge.
  5. Add sliced hardboiled eggs on top with a dusting of paprika from high up
