Food rescue advice needed

OK, here is what happened. I was going to make potato salad as usual. As eggs and potatoes were boiling I took the mixing bowl and added Mayo, Mustard and spices.
Then I took out a tupperware of raw chicken in a marinade to put on the grill. When I opened the lid it leaked marinade into the mixing bowl.
No way I'm gonna use Mayo mixed with raw chicken marinade. Contamination. Threw it out.
Problem...I have no more Mayo to make a new batch. The closest store is 10 miles away.
So, I've got 6 cooked red potatoes and 4 hard boiled eggs but no Mayo. What would you do with it?

A Google image search pulled up some good looking things without mayo.

Mom’s Potato Salad
6 Red Bliss potatoes
Place potatoes in a pot. Cover with water and put the lid on. Boil for about 30- 45 minutes or until tender. Test with a fork or knife to see if it pierces easily. Pour off the hot water and replace with cold water. Let the potatoes cool before cutting into chunks and proceeding with the dressing.
Dressing: Use your own judgment to decide if this is enough dressing for your potato salad. Naturally, a lot will depend on the size of your potatoes.
I usually use a ratio of about 2 parts oil to 1 part vinegar, or sometimes 3 parts oil to 1 part vinegar. You decide what floats your boat.
1/4 cup olive oil
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
salt,
freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup red onion, minced
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
handful of minced parsley
Blend all of the above together with a fork or a whisk and mix into the potatoes. Toss in the parsley and mix well.

German potato salad doesn't use mayo I don't think. Got any vinegar?
Throw the eggs in the fridge until you can get some mayo and make deviled eggs.

Very funny.

That's a good idea. I've got balsamic vinegar and mustard. I've made German potato salad before but never with hard boiled eggs. Thanks.

Homemade mayo...

Exactly. Make it in the food processor or the blender. Nothing to it.

Or, if you don't want to make homemade mayo, just make a seasoned vinaigrette. Red potatoes are especially good in a vinaigrette style potato salad.
Mix 2 parts oil to 1 part vinegar, then add whole grain or dijon mustard, a pinch of sugar (or Steen's or maple syrup) salt, pepper, and whatever else you like: chopped chives, rosemary, shredded basil, dill, pickle relish, capers, etc.
