Potato salad is an awesome side dish or main dish for summer foods, and is a great choice for a summer cookout. Sometimes store bought potato salad can taste a bit funky, so a homemade option is always appreciated.

1 Tbs ground black pepper
Lawry’s seasoned salt (or any other seasoned salt)

5. Add potatoes, eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, & pepper. Stir thoroughly.
