This isn't TNT for me, but it is on my list of recipes to try (a mom at pre-school gave me this recipe).

Dill Potato Salad
14 c. new potatoes (chopped)
16 oz. sour cream
1 heaping Tbsp. fresh dill weed (chopped)
2 tsp. dried parsley
1/4 c. dijon mustard
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool, and chill. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine sour cream, dill, parsley, mustard, salt, and pepper. Pour dressing over potatoes and toss gently. Chill before serving.
 
I boil potatoes, then peel them...slice and toss with italian dressing and let them sit to marinate overnight.

In the morning, I add onions, celery, eggs, whatever...I also take 3 boiled egg yolks mash with mayo, mustard, a pinch of sugar and 1 cup of sour cream. If it's a very large batch, you would have to double the dressing recipe. The sour cream cuts the mustard so it isn't too strong and gives a smooth, creamy consistency.
 
I usually just "dump & taste" but work from this basic recipe:

Put 8 - 10 potatoes in a pot with 2 eggs. Cover with water & add a teaspoon of salt. (If you don't like egg in your potato salad, just use them for egg salad or something because it makes a big difference if you boil the potatoes w/o the eggs in the pot. Boil until potatoes are tender. Drain & cool. Peel potatoes & cube. Peel eggs & chop. (I make them the same consistency as for egg salad. A pastry cutter works great.)

Clean & dice 2 ribs celery. Add to bowl with potatoes & egg. Add chopped onion if desired.

Combine:
1 c mayo (I always use Miracle Whip)
1 tsp mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp ground celery seed
1 Tbl vinegar
1 Tbl sugar

Pour over potatoes & combine until everything is well coated. Sprinkle with paprika & chill well.
