Shannon's potato salad (not to be compared with gingers at all because hers is amazing but secret)

First of all, I mentioned this can't be compared to Gingers. While I do know the recipe I will never share it. You see some recipes are meant to be kept secret, like my turkey or Gingers potato salad. You know some things, well they just can't be shared!

Anyway here is mine which still kicks major ass!

This is for meant to make about 3 servings, enough for two people and then lunch for one the next day (or enough for my husband for dinner and then his lunch the next day)

4-5 large white potatoes peeled
1.5 cups mayo
2-3 tbsp mustard
3 tbsp finely chopped yellow onion
3 finely chopped sweet pickles
2 hard boiled eggs chopped (if your in a hurry leave these out)
1 tsp ranch dressing/dip powder
1 tbsp pepper
salt to taste
5 pieces crispy bacon crumbled
dash cayenne pepper

Peel and chop potatoes into large bites. Boil until fork soft. Remove from heat immediately and drain. Place in fridge to cool. While potatoes are cooling mix all other ingredients in a bowl and adjust for your taste. Add in potatoes and lightly fold together so as not to mash potatoes. Cover and place in fridge till ready to serve.
