Ingredients
6 large eggs - boiled6 large potatoes - boiled w/ skins3 cups Macaroni - boiled per package10 oz bag frozen peas2 cups Mayonnaise
I have no idea how long it takes to cook an egg. I cook them until the shell starts to crack open.
I also have no idea how long the potatoes cook. I cook them until they are "done" by stickign a fork in them and checking.
As for the macaroni, again, I don't time it. I do my cooking to preference.
Ok. Once everything is cooked, Strain the eggs, and cool under cold water, and peel the shells off them. Make sur eyou get ALL the shell off. I usually buy brown eggsa cos the shell is easier to see!! Once peeled, chop. Set aside.
Drain the potaotes and cut into cubes. Set aside
Pour the bag of frozen peas into the strainer. Pour the cooked macaroni over the top of the peas. This defrosts the peas and strained the mac!
Dump everyhting into one huge bowl. Stir in mayo. You will want to start with ONE CUP of Mayo and add a little at a time. Nothing worse than getting an egg shell in your mouth... or a mouth full of egg flavoured mayo. ARGH! So make sure you mix it good.
The potatoes WILL break up a bit more. That's ok. I tend to undercook one or two by just a few moments, and those are the ones that stay together. You don't want CRUNCHY potatoes though!!
So mix everything up. Put it in the refrigerator to cool... Trying to stay OUT OF IT!!!!!!! I never can. I always am digging into it before I am ready to serve! LOL
LOVE IT! Hope you do too!!
