Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 6 medium white potatoes with skin

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 1 cup chopped celery

  • 1 cup chopped carrots

  • 1 teaspoon celery seed

  • 4 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and chopped

  • 2 eggs, beaten

  • ¾ cup white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar

  • ½ cup milk

  • 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 1 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing

Directions

  1. Place the potatoes into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 20 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain, and set aside to cool.

  2. While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together 2 eggs, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan. Stir in the vinegar, milk, and mustard. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in the butter. Refrigerate until cool, then stir in the mayonnaise.

  3. Peel the potatoes if desired, and cut into medium dice. Place in a large bowl; mix in onion, celery, carrots, celery seed, and hard-cooked eggs. Gently fold in the dressing. Refrigerate until serving.

Cook’s Note

I personally like this to sit for at least a day before serving to let the flavors blend, but you may serve it as soon as it is chilled.

Banana-Oat Cottage Cheese Pancakes

I combined a few gluten-free recipes to make these cottage cheese pancakes. They are super high in protein and sweet enough to eat without any toppings, though I usually chop some strawberries or blueberries to top them! Feel free to add chopped fruit, syrup, or whipped cream to top your pancakes!

This 'burger dog' is far more than a hot dog-shaped cheeseburger. It's a one-handed wonder that's perfectly proportioned and easier to eat than a regular cheeseburger.

You can't go wrong with this classic latke recipe! Made with shredded potatoes, grated onion, and a flour and egg binder, these tasty potato latkes are pan-fried in batches until golden brown. These hot, crispy, oniony potato pancakes are must for Hanukkah but perfectly acceptable other times of the year. Serve with applesauce, sour cream, or smoked salmon.
