Grandma Murdock's Potato Salad

potatoes, peeled & chopped
onion, chopped
hard-boiled eggs, chopped...reserve a few slices for garnish
Miracle Whip
milk
mustard
salt & pepper to taste
paprika

Boil potatoes until soft (10-12 minutes), drain. In a separate bowl, mix Miracle Whip with milk (you want a lot of the dressing, as it really soaks into the warm potatoes, so for 4-5 potatoes, I'd use 1/2-3/4 c. Miracle Whip with a few T. of milk), a dash of mustard, and salt & pepper to taste. Add eggs to the mixture and garnish with reserved egg slices and a dusting of paprika.

Audrey's little note: Sorry the measurements are so vague...this is a recipe Grandma just throws together and it takes a little practice to get the ratios right, but when you get it, it's a flash back to countless weenie roasts and family dinners.
