Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 lbs russet, or red, potatoes washed, peeled, & diced into 1/2″ cubes
  • 1/2 heaping cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 4 tbsp buffalo wing sauce we prefer a mild sauce
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup diced celery optional
  • 2 hard boiled eggs peeled and diced

Instructions

  • In a medium sized pot, add the potatoes and add water until it just covers them. Add about 1 tsp salt, and bring the water to a boil over high heat.
    2 1/2 lbs russet, or red, potatoes
  • Allow the potatoes to boil for about 12- 15 minutes, or until fork tender. Transfer the potatoes to a colander to drain, and gently rinse with cold water for about one minute to stop the cooking process and cool them off.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, buffalo sauce, and salt and pepper. Using a spatula, gently fold in the remaining ingredients, stirring just until everything is evenly incorporated.
    1/2 heaping cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup sour cream, 4 tbsp buffalo wing sauce, salt and pepper, 1/3 cup diced red onion, 1/4 cup diced celery, 2 hard boiled eggs
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • The veggies and the eggs are both optional. Omit any or all of them if you're not a fan.
  • Want other add ins? Stir in some crunchy crumbled bacon or chopped green onions.
  • Use whatever buffalo sauce you like. We use mild but if you like more heat you can use spicier.
