Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs. red potatoes, skin on, chopped (~6-7 potatoes)
  • 3 large hard boiled eggs, grated or chopped
  • 1/2 cup celery, diced (~2 ribs)
  • 1/2 cup green bell peppers, diced (~1/2 bell pepper)
  • 1/3 cup pickles or relish, diced
  • 1/3 cup red onion, diced
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 Tbsp. parsley, chopped
  • 2 Tbsp. chives, chopped

For the Dressing:

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. paprika
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin
  • 3/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper

Instructions

  1. Boil the potatoes and eggs together: Add chopped potatoes and whole eggs to a large pot of water. Bring to a boil. After 15 minutes, remove eggs and place in an ice bath. Check potatoes for tenderness; if needed, cook 5 minutes more.
  2. Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, olive oil, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Cool the potatoes: Drain and rinse potatoes under cold water. Let cool slightly.
  4. Prepare veggies and herbs: Dice celery, bell peppers, pickles, and red onion. Chop dill, parsley, and chives. Peel and grate or chop eggs.
  5. Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, combine potatoes, veggies, herbs, and eggs. Pour dressing over the top and gently stir to combine.
  6. Chill or serve: Serve immediately or chill for at least 1 hour for the best flavor.

Notes

  • Swap sweet pickles for dill if you like a sweeter potato salad.
  • Use dairy-free yogurt for a vegan version.
  • This salad tastes even better after chilling for a few hours!
