Boil Potatoes: Start by boiling the potatoes in salted water until they are fork-tender. This should take about 15 minutes. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool.

Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
-
Adjust Seasoning: Give the dressing a taste and adjust the seasoning according to your preference. You can add more salt, pepper, or any other spices to suit your taste buds.
-
Cut Potatoes: Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into bite-sized pieces.
-
Combine Ingredients: Add the cut potatoes to the bowl with the dressing. Gently stir until the potatoes are evenly coated with the dressing mixture.
-
Adjust Consistency: If you find that the potato salad is too dry, you can add more Miracle Whip to achieve the desired consistency.
-
Chill: Cover the potato salad with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for 2-3 hours to allow the flavors to meld together and for the salad to chill properly.
-
