Creole Potato Salad

Creole Potato Salad is about as far from bland, boring potato salad as you can get. It has tons of seasoning, plus Creole mustard along with hard-boiled eggs, celery, green onion, and parsley. Combined with mayonnaise and sour cream this is one creamy, delicious potato salad with a little zip!

. It was during Mardi Gras and if you’ve never been to Mardi Gras in New Orleans, it should be at the top of your bucket list. There’s no experience quite like it. Music, dancing, laughter, costumes, parades, beads, maybe a Hurricane or two. So much fun!

Forget all the wild and crazy partying you see on Bourbon St. Mardi Gras is really a family affair and it is best experienced in a neighborhood setting. We watched the Krewe of Druids Parade and the Krewe of Nyx Parade go down St Charles Avenue in front of the Ponchartrain Hotel.

And of course we spent some time walking around the French Quarter. So may interesting things to see!

We also got to travel across the Mississippi River to where Zatarain’s products are made. Local food personality Poppy Tooker showed us how she makes jambalaya.

While we were there we sampled some new Zatarain’s products which are really amazing. I look forward to sharing some recipes using them soon!

Creole Potato Salad is perfect not only for a Mardi Gras Celebration but a potluck, picnic, or summer cookout. It’s hard to go wrong with potato salad, provided it is seasoned well. To make sure this potato salad wasn’t lacking in flavor, I added Zatarain’s liquid Shrimp & Crab Boil to the water I cooked the potatoes in.

Then I used Zatarain’s Creole Seasoning to flavor the potato salad. It’s one of my favorite seasonings to have on hand.

Every Creole Potato Salad needs some creole mustard and I used Zatarain’s Creole Mustard along with mayonnaise and sour cream for creaminess.

I finished the potato salad off with celery, green onion, hard-boiled eggs, and parsley. I like to sprinkle a little more Zatarain’s Creole seasoning on just before serving.

Whether for a Mardi Gras party, a picnic or potluck, Creole Potato Salad will compliment anything and everything you serve.

A huge thank you to Zatarain’s for hosting me in New Orleans!
