Ingredients

  • 2 pounds red potatoes, rinsed and cleaned
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill weed

  3. Add potatoes to bowl and toss well with sour cream mixture.
  4. Stir in chopped eggs and chives. Cover; refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving. Garnish with additional chopped dill or chives as desired.
