Lena’s Potato Salad

Ingredients

• 8 extra large eggs
• 8 large potatoes, peeled and chopped
• 1 (3 ounce) jar pitted and sliced green olives
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Place eggs in a saucepan with enough cold water to cover. Bring water to a boil, and immediately remove from heat. Cover pan, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool, and peel. Do not chop.

In a pot with enough water to cover, boil the potatoes 15 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, and allow to remain in the hot water about 10 minutes. Drain, and cool.

Place the eggs and potatoes in a large bowl. By hand, mix in the olives, mayonnaise, and mustard, and mash the eggs and potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, and refrigerate until serving.
