    Ninja Foodi Potato Salad

    This past weekend I made Ninja Foodi Pork Ribs and wanted to make an easy side dish to go with them.  One of my favorite side dishes for anything barbecue is potato salad.  Growing up, my family ate a lot of potato salad! 

    There's just something so good about cold, fresh potato salad.  This is my family's recipe.  It's a bit different than the pre-made potato salad that you can buy at the grocery store.  The main difference is the addition of sweet pickles.  Every single time we make potato salad, my dad will add extra pickles.....I think that's our favorite part!  If you're not a fan of pickles, you can use celery instead.  Both give a great crunch to the dish.

    Potato Salad

    One of the nice things about making potato salad in the Ninja Foodi is that the diced potatoes keep their shape better than they do in a pot on the stove.  When I cook the diced potatoes on the stove, I stir the potatoes to make sure they don't burn.  The stirring causes the potatoes to crumble a bit.  In the Ninja Foodi, there is no need to stir so they stay in perfectly cut cubes!

    I love this recipe because it allows you to cook the potatoes and the eggs at the same time.  And....the eggs came out PERFECT!  I was a little worried that 4 minutes would not be a long enough cook time but they were cooked perfectly.  The yolks were bright yellow and cooked throughout!

    Potato Salad

    Tips for making Ninja Foodi Potato Salad:

    1.Modify this recipe to fit the tastes of your family.  Add as many eggs and pickles as your family likes.  I love them both so I added a lot!

    2.When peeling the hard boiled eggs, roll the cooked egg on your counter top.  This will gently break the shell and make it easier to remove.

    3.Be sure that the potatoes and eggs are cooled before adding the mayonnaise.  If the mayonnaise is added to hot potatoes and eggs, it will not be as creamy.

    How to make Ninja Foodi Potato Salad

    Option 1-cooking eggs in the shell with the potatoes:

    1. Peel and dice potatoes.
    2. Pour water into Ninja Foodi.
    3. Place steamer basket into Ninja Foodi.
    4. Pour diced potatoes into steamer basket.
    5. Nestle the eggs (in the shell) among the diced potatoes.
    6. Sprinkle ½ of the salt and pepper on top of the potatoes.
    7. Close lid.
    8. Turn valve to "seal" and cook on high pressure for 4 minutes.
    9. When timer beeps, quick release pressure.
    10. Remove eggs from pot.  Let cool and peel and then chop.
    11. Lift steamer basket out of Ninja Foodi and strain potatoes.
    12. Combine cooled potatoes, eggs, pickles, mayonnaise and remaining salt and pepper in a bowl.
    13. Serve and enjoy!

      I guess I either used the wrong kind of potatoes or diced too small cause mine came out the consistency of mashed potatoes which really was good. So going to the store to buy russet potatoes and cut into bigger pieces.

        What type of potatoes did you use? Try Russett and cutting them into bigger chunks. 🙂

      My husband made the Ninja Foodi Potato Salad in the Instant Pot as his first attempt in using an instant pot. It is delicious. He has made it four times now. He has also made it with dill relish instead of sweet pickles, and he has added chopped onion and celery to it. Every way has been really good especially the next day when the flavors have blended.
