This zingy, crunchy super tasty potato salad with dill will have you totally hooked! And best of all - it is low fat! Say good-bye to drenching your poor little potatoes in mayo and give this recipe a try.
What You'll Need:
- Large pot with lid
- Large bowl and small mixing bowl
- Spatula
- One bag of mixed mini potatoes (I like the bags that come with red, yellow and blue)
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 stalks of celery for that crunch
- 4 Tbps of chopped green onion
- 1 cup fat free Greek yogurt
- 1 Tbps light mayo (I used Miracle Whip)
- 3 Tbps cider vinegar
- 1/4 honey mustard (not the overly sweet kind. I chose a honey, Dijon mustard for a little extra bite)
- 1/2 cup of relish (I used the basic Heinz variety)
- 1 Tbps 'fresh' dill (I used the kind that comes in the tube...classy, I know). You can also use dried dill or dill from a fresh dill plant - up to you and what you have available at the time
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
What You'll Do:
- Fill your large pot halfway with water, sprinkle in your salt, cover and let boil
- Chop your mini potatoes into halves or quarters (depending on the size)
- Once the water has boiled, gently spoon in your potato pieces
- I boiled my potatoes for around 12 minutes, but the key is to not have them go too soft - then your potato salad with be a sad mushy consistency
- Boil them until they are soft enough to stick a fork in without being too soft they break apart
- While boiling, dice your celery into tiny pieces and chop your green onion. Set aside in your smaller mixing bowl
- Combine your fat free Greek yogurt, light mayo, cider viegar, honey mustard, relish, dill and freshly ground pepper into the small mixing bowl
- Using a spatula, stir the contents together until they are evenly distributed. Cover and set in the fridge to stay cool
- Drain your potatoes and allow to cool on your countertop for at least 20 minutes. You don't want to pour the dressing on hot potatoes
- Once cool to the touch, remove your dressing from the fridge and cover the chopped potatoes
- Using your spatula, gently stir to ensure all potatoes are covered evenly
- You can serve this right away or let it sit. You can keep this salad up to three days if you keep it cool - so this dish is great as a make-ahead dish
The STEWART SCORE:
Appearance: 1.5 - Quite pretty with the mixed colours of the potatoes
Taste: 2+
Ease: 1 (You will need about one hour or so to make)
