[@maurinadittenhaffer6140]

Marie
What pretty colors in your salad. Perfect for Christmas or any day. Looks delicious.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks so much Maurina

[@Hawaiiwiley]

Try using your Insta pot to cook those potatoes in the jackets then immerse in ice water and they’ll peel perfectly. Another hack, is to use an egg slicer to cut up your hard boil eggs. And we don’t like celery seed but we do like caraway seeds in ours. Useing pickle juice in your mayonnaise mustard mix tastes really good too and makes it go further.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@Hawaiiwiley]

You’re very welcome I really enjoy your videos!

[@debraspringers2098]

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@KarenJones-t4o]

Good morning 🌞
Looks great to me!!! I ❤ all the ingredients you put in your potato salad... However, I have a family who doesn't like celery. I like the crunch. Never used pimentos, so that would be something different and it's so pretty in your salad. ❤🦃😇

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much. When I was hosting our dinners I would make one bowl the way. I liked it and another bowl without the celery, onions and pimento. It ended up being 10 pounds of potato salad but it was all eaten and the rest every one took some home.

[@KarenJones-t4o]

That's a wonderful idea 💡. I have to do that with my dressing... 🦃

[@KarenJones-t4o]

Good Sunday morning 🌄. I just wanted y'all to know that I watched it this morning and tried to commit but it wasn't allowing me to for some reason or another....
But I wanted to tell you Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 and enjoy your time with your family 🦃😇🌞🙏

[@PretirementDays]

Potato salad is a wonderful idea for the Holidays. Our family has never done that, I might surprise everyone!

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

You should! Thanks very much

[@debbieskitchen2]

Looks good Marie. I put relish in my potato salad and eggs too like Momma did. I add mayo only. I don't add mustard or celery and neither did Momma. There is so many ways to make it. I guess depends on where a person is from.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Debbie. Yes, the best potato salad is the one made just for you. When we were first married I didn't like potato salad but Marie made it all the time and I started loving it. Now it is a must have for all dinners.
Have a Blessed weekend,
Calvin and Marie

[@ginas.6656]

That potato salad iscso good just made some n i added onion cuz i love onions. Thanks Marie hope you n Calvin have a great thanksgiving!

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thank you! You too!

[@meemo4134]

Hi Marie and Calvin! Thanks for this nice potato salad recipe! I am going to make this! Prayers and Love and blessings to both of you and your loved ones! Have a great weekend! 🙏❤❤

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@sheryleldridge6597]

Good evening Calvin and Marie. I make potato salad every year for Thanksgiving. I don't put mustard in mine. I only put sweet relish, mayonnaise, diced onions, sometimes an egg, also salt and pepper. Yours looks absolutely delicious. Have a Blessed Day 😊.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@lovelife0413]

I agree Marie. Make your mixture first then combine withe the taters. We don't like to add alot of x-tra's just keep it simple. Perfect every time. Mandatory in our family. Oh, BTW we do like to put slices of boiled eggs on top, Oh yeah. LOL TFS God Bless 👍❤

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Very true! Thanks very much

[@vondrarose118]

Potato Salad is one of my very favorite dishes, your potato salad looks amazing!!

[@cindym3340]

I love potato salad. Your’s looks super delicious. My Mama always put celery in her’s. Hope you’re feeling better Marie. Thank-you Calvin and Marie for all your hard work and dedication to your channel. God Bless you both.🙏🏻🤗💕🌻

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks so much Cindy

[@titasmom678]

Potato salad will be on our Thanksgiving menu too! Look forward to hearing your Sunday Chat! God Bless to you both.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Sounds great! Thanks very much

[@karensweet6530]

Hello Calvin n Marie! Potato Salad is a must have at our Dinners! I don't add pimentos or celery to mine! I mash my eggs up almost like Egg Salad, Add Mayonnaise, Mustard, Onion, Salt, and Sweet Salad Cubes instead of Sweet Relish! The Sweet Salad Cubes are a little sweeter and bigger and add a better consistency than the Relish! You should try it instead of Relish since you like alot of pickles, it won't take as much and its so good! My Family is picky so I have to leave the celery out! We don't care for pimentos! Yours looked pretty tho. Hope ya'll enjoy it! God Bless. 🙏🙏❤❤👏👏

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Karen

[@oliversmom9509]

Found ya! Love good potato salad! We don’t put pimento but add onion. I might try adding pimento. And I do add mustard. Looks good.
Everyone is getting their Thanksgiving recipes going. Love watching this time of year for getting different versions.
Have a Blessed evening!🌻❤️🙏 🦃

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@pirththee]

My father insisted you always added the sweet relish.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@carolynholland1608]

This looks delicious!! 😊 Thank you for saving my day... my extended family is having our Christmas gathering next week & I was struggling with what meal to take.... Marie's potato salad it is!! ❤ Thank you so much for sharing, take care & have a wonderful day/evening. ❤❤❤

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@rennierad]

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much Rennie

[@treyjoyner1932]

Mayonnaise, mustard and relish should be the ingredients of potato salad and tuna salad that I'm not the fan of. I'm not the fan of mayonnaise and relish, but I love to touch the round, plastic mayonnaise jars at Walmart Supercenter's condiment aisle. I like the "Blue Plate, Duke's and Hellmann's" kinds of jars. There are also the squeezy mayonnaise bottles that I saw in the same aisle. I still love French's mustard, Heinz ketchup, Kraft sweet honey barbecue sauce and Mrs. Butterworth's pancake syrup that separately belong in my 4 squeezy Oxo condiment bottles.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

We love potato salad

[@at.80]

Is this a Throwback video?

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Yes it is.

[@yana1955]

The video said a tablespoon of salt but the printed recipe says a teaspoon of salt.

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much. The recipe does call for 1 tsp of salt but we usually add a little more to ours. It just depends on how much salt you like.

[@oneness3359]

❤😂❤

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

Thanks very much

[@JodiPetty-co1jg]

You didn’t put onions in it

[@SouthernCountryLiving]

We do sometimes but not always
