Perfect Summer Sides: Grandma's Potato Salad with Pete and Gerry's Organic Hard-Boiled Eggs

I’m really excited to be working with Pete and Gerry’s Organic Eggs as one of their Good Eggs brand ambassadors. This post is sponsored by them, but my love for their eggs (and the family behind them) is exclusively my own.

Once a month, during the few years we lived in Arizona near my grandparents, we would join them for dinner. After we arrived my Grandfather would be quick to pour us each a gin and tonic and we'd sit on the patio sipping our drinks and watching the jack rabbits scurry across the golf course.

After drinks my Grandma and I would head to the kitchen to finish the sides for the meal, while the guys grilled the meat. Whenever grilling was involved you could count on Grandma making her delicious potato salad. With the perfect tang, the right amount of crunch, delicious flavor and the addition of hard-boiled eggs there's little that could beat her potato salad.

Pete and Gerry`s Organic Eggs are an easy addition to any summer side.

I once asked her for the recipe, to which she replied, "Well. I'm not sure. I just put a little of this and that in and have your Grandpa taste it and when he says it's good, it's done."

With Grandpa's input she wrote down as best she could the ingredients to her potato salad dressing and passed them along to me. I've since made my own additions and tweaked the recipe a bit, but in keeping with the "taste and see" method of the original, I really just add a pinch of this and that until it tastes "right."

A new addition to the recipe this year is Pete and Gerry's Organic Hard-Boiled Eggs, these pre-packaged hard-boiled eggs are peeled and ready to eat and are a great way to cut down on cooking time and save on dishes.

Having Pete and Gerry's Hard-Boiled Organic Eggs on-hand makes for the perfect snack or are great for on-the-go lunches. Plus I always feel good knowing that Pete and Gerry's Organic Eggs are sourced from small family farms that raise happy hens.
