Potato Salad Deviled Eggs
Potato Salad Deviled Eggs are the perfect finger food at any celebration. I don’t know about you but to me it’s not a party without deviled eggs! I was asked to bring potato salad to a ladies function and decided to change it up a bit with these Potato Salad Deviled Eggs. Everyone was surprised when I showed up with deviled eggs instead of a bowl of potato salad. But once they tasted these they completely understood. 😉
When you think about it everything in deviled eggs is in potato salad. At least the base ingredients are. To make these fun deviled eggs I added chopped baked potato, celery, black olives and chives with a dill pickle wedge on top and an sprinkle of paprika. I don’t know why but I remember growing up there was always a sprinkle of paprika on the potato salad. I guess they thought it made it pretty? Now a days I add something fresh like chopped chives or parsley. Make this appetizer your own. Add or take away whatever you like. This is my version of potato salad…what’s yours?

Great idea! It just makes sense!
What a great idea to combine the two! I had never thought of that, but now I want to try it!
such a good idea- Although I would totally eat the whole batch 😉
You are so spot on about deviled eggs basically being potato salad, so why not add the potato to the egg. Love the concept.
What a genius idea to do deviled eggs with potato salad! Those are the two best things at any party! These sound amazing! I love deviled eggs!
Dear Sheryl, Deviled eggs are so good. I love the idea that you combined them both! xo, Catherine
I love them both so I’ll be making these for sure!
Awesome Linda! 🙂
My grandmother always made potato salad with eggs in it, so this reminds me of that! Gotta pin this!
There has been a rage fad going about utilizing Fauxtatoes; as in whipped/mashed cauliflower(sp?). I’d bet that would work in this recipe if one was trying to reduce starches from their menu. I like the idea of potato salad like this. I’ve also mixed potato salad with coleslaw for BBQ picnic before and enjoyed it.
Thanks for this. You’re very creative. 🙂
Love this idea! I definitely need to try it:)
Top marks for this. Great recipe. And tastes delicious, thanks for sharing.
