Grandpa Buick’s Famous Potato Salad

Ingredients

• 3 pounds red potatoes
• 3 (4.5 ounce) cans small shrimp, drained
• 2 sweet onions, finely diced
• 6 hard-cooked eggs, sliced 1/8-inch thick
• 1 (16 ounce) jar sweet pickles, drained and finely diced
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 pinch paprika, or to taste

Directions

Place red potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender and the peels begin to crack, about 20 minutes. Drain and let potatoes cool. Peel cooled potatoes and cut into 1/8-inch dice.

Place potatoes, shrimp, onions, hard-cooked eggs, sweet pickles, and mayonnaise into a large salad bowl and stir to combine. Season with salt and black pepper; sprinkle top of salad with paprika. Chill salad at least 3 hours before serving.
