Deviled Egg Potato Salad with Adobo (Low Sodium, Big Flavor)
If you love deviled eggs and you love potato salad, why choose? This recipe combines the two into one creamy, tangy side dish that disappears first at every cookout, potluck, and holiday table.
The secret ingredient is Lauri Lee’s Ultra Low Sodium Adobo Seasoning. It’s a blend of spices, onion, garlic, and chili powder that adds deep, savory flavor (and a little warmth) to the creamy egg yolk dressing, with only 1mg of sodium per serving. It takes the place of the paprika you’d normally find in deviled eggs, so you get that classic flavor with a bit more personality.

Why This Potato Salad Works
It’s built like a deviled egg. Instead of tossing potatoes in a plain mayo dressing, you mash the egg yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, and pickle relish, just like you would for deviled eggs. The result is a richer, creamier dressing that coats every piece of potato.
The eggs come out perfect. This recipe uses the 10-5-10 method for hard-boiled eggs: boil for 10 minutes, rest in the hot water for 5, then ice bath for 10. You get fully set yolks that mash smoothly, and the shells peel off easily.
Every bite has texture. Celery adds crunch, black olives add a savory pop, and chopped egg whites keep things hearty.

Tips for the Best Potato Salad
- Cool the potatoes completely. Rinsing them under cold water stops the cooking and keeps warm potatoes from making the dressing runny.
- Don’t overcook them. Tender is the goal, not mushy. Test one with a fork around the 15-minute mark.
- Mash the yolks well. Getting them smooth before adding the mayo gives you a creamy dressing without lumps.
- Taste before chilling. Add pepper or a splash more pickle relish to suit your crowd.
- Save time. Start the potatoes while the eggs rest or sit in their ice bath, so both are ready at once.
Make Ahead and Storage
This salad is even better after a few hours in the fridge, which gives the flavors time to come together. Since it’s mayonnaise-based, keep it cold. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator, and don’t leave it sitting out at a summer picnic longer than necessary. Set the bowl over a larger bowl of ice for outdoor gatherings.
What to Serve It With
This potato salad is a natural partner for anything off the grill: burgers, ribs, chicken, or hot dogs. It’s also a great fit for potlucks, holiday buffets, and game-day spreads.
Low Sodium Doesn’t Mean Low Flavor
Lauri Lee’s seasoning blends are made to prove you don’t need a lot of salt to make food taste great. A single teaspoon of Adobo brings savory depth to a big bowl of potato salad without the sodium load of typical seasoning blends.
