Recipe: Potato Salad (serves 60 to 70) for Shauna, Calgary

Hi Shauna :-) I found this recipe on the internet. It sounds like it might be a good one for a large crowd. Good luck and let us know how it turns out for you.

Potato Salad for 60 to 70

16 pounds baking potatoes, peeled, cooked and cubed*
32 hard cooked eggs, chopped
2 pounds sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
16 green onions, thinly sliced
4 cups mayonnaise or salad dressing
4 cups (32 ounces) sour cream
1 cup prepared horseradish
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 Tbsp. salt
2 Tbsp. pepper

Toss potatoes, eggs, bacon and onions. Combine remaining ingredients mixing until smooth, toss with potato mixture. Chill for several hours. Makes 60-70 servings.

*Shauna, Be sure to use red or some waxy type of potato, not Idaho or Russets because they will fall apart. Red potatoes are the type usually or often recommended for use in Potato Salad. I usually cook them with the skin on, then peel when they are cool enough to handle. The skin comes off very easily.

Also, I think the horseradish in this recipe could be optional and I think you could use celery if you wanted??!?
