Ingredients

Instructions
- Peel, rinse, and dice potatoes into one-inch cubes.
- Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water until about one-inch above the potatoes. Add one tsp of salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil potatoes for approximately 10 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain into a colander and rinse with cold water to cool them.
- While the potatoes are boiling, place the eggs into a small pot and cover them with cold water until about one-inch above the potatoes. Cover the pot with a lid.

- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- I prefer to use russet potatoes, but you can use any kind you like or have on hand for this recipe! Try using Yukon gold, red, or even baby potatoes.
