No-Mayo Vegan Potato Salad

Recipe Description

No-Mayo Vegan Potato Salad is completely scrumptious and healthy! Besides being tasty, this salad is excellent because you can make it ahead of time, and it will stay good in the fridge for 2-3 days. Even if you plan to eat the salad on the day you make it, allow it to sit at least 30 minutes before serving. Potato salad needs time for flavors to meld and marry.

How do you improve on classic recipes that are already pretty beloved? Sometimes you just want to skip the mayonnaise. And believe me, this lightened-up dish is just as satisfying and delicious without it. This salad is also vegan-friendly, packed with classic flavors, and topped with flavorful olive oil dressing. Easy and healthy? Count us in!

To make the No-Mayo Vegan Potato Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
