Ingredients

Potato Salad

  • 1/2 lb. cooked bacon chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cups chopped Idaho potatoes 1.5-inch cubes (skin on)
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons minced chives

Potato Salad Sauce

  • 3/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons avocado mayonnaise*
  • 2 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 3 teaspoons dill pickle juice**
  • 2 tablespoons minced dill pickles
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions

  • Begin, by cooking bacon by following our Oven Bacon tutorial. Once cooked, remove any excess grease and then chop into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
  • Next, bring a large pot of water to a boil and add potatoes to the pot. Boil until potatoes are cooked, but still firm.
  • While potatoes are boiling, mix all ingredients for the potato salad sauce in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • When potatoes are done cooking, remove from heat and strain water.
  • Add potatoes to a large bowl along with the chopped bacon, hard boiled eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, and chives. Mix well.
  • Finally, pour potato salad sauce over the potato mixture and mix until sauce is covering all of the ingredients. Mash the potatoes with a wooden spoon (just a little bit) to create a creamy potato salad consistency.
  • Eat immediately or chill in the fridge to eat cold for later.

Tips & Notes

  • *avocado mayonnaise: option to substitute normal mayonnaise.
  • ***dill pickle juice: you get this directly from a jar of pickles. If you do not have this, feel free to sub apple cider vinegar.
  • Storage: store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
