Quick and Easy Potato Salad

It's not summer without a potato salad. This quick and easy version cooks both the potatoes and hard boils the eggs at the same time. Nestle the eggs in with the potatoes and let your pressure cook­er work its magic. You'll be amazed how simple it is to put together a classic summer side dish without heating up the kitchen! I recommend washing the eggs before putting them in with the potatoes.
