Follow The Directions

01

Step
15 mins

Gently boil the cubed potatoes in a large pot of lightly salted water until they are tender yet firm, approximately 15 minutes. Drain well and transfer to a spacious serving bowl.

02

Step
12 mins

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then immediately remove from heat. Cover the pan and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water and allow to cool. Peel and chop eggs. Add to potatoes in the serving bowl. Stir in mixed vegetables until combined.

03

Step
5 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, chopped olives, fresh lemon juice, ground black pepper, ground mustard, dried dill weed, and salt to create a luscious dressing.

04

Step
1 hrs

Pour the creamy dressing over the potato and vegetable mixture. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, then gently toss to ensure everything is evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and intensify.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a finely diced shallot or red onion to the dressing.
If you prefer a lighter salad, Greek yogurt can be used as a substitute for part of the mayonnaise.
This salad can be prepared up to 2 days in advance. Just be sure to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
