5 -6 medium potatoes
1/2 finely chopped onions or 2 -3 tablespoons dried onion flakes
2 tablespoons chopped dill pickles
4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
finely chopped celery (optional)
1 cup mayonnaise (Best Foods, Helmann's, or Vegenaise - a little more, depending on texture after mixing)
chopped boiled egg, for garnish
paprika, for garnish
dill weed, for garnish

1
Steam potatoes with skin on.
2
Mix together all ingredients except potatoes.
3
When potatoes are done, cut (it's up to you whether or not you want to leave the skins on) while still warm and fold together with the mayo mixture - it makes it taste better to combine while warm.
4
Put into serving container and garnish.
5
Refrigerate for at least three hours before serving (the longer the better).
6
This potato salad is even better then next day!

Note from Julie: I use the dried minced onion because I like their texture, omit the celery, and add about 1/4 tsp of both curry powder and dried mustard... but don't tell Mom. ;)
