We are super healthy around here, from what we eat to how we live, so I’ve never a big fan of traditional potato salads that include mayo or heavy dairy products (too fattening and not everyone can eat them). It’s important to eat a diet with lots of fruits and veggies, so I make a version of potato salad that is super healthy, very tasty, and likely not on anyone’s allergy list, for folks who need to be careful about their diet but want to keep eating this yummy, high-fiber vegetable. It’s really easy to make too (you probably already have all the ingredients in your home).

I love potato salad but I've been avoiding it for years because of the fat content. This looks good – I'm definately going to try it. Thanks for sharing.
Those sound (and look) delicious. I'm a fan of any potato salad that doesn't have mustard, mayo or vinegar.
This is a fantastic recipe. I have been wanting to find a healthy potato salad instead of the deli brand. This seems easy and has lots of great ingredients. I would love to try this.
we love traditional potato salad but not all the fat that goes with it. i'm totally trying this! plus you wouldn't have any food poisoning issues if you take this to gathering where the food sits out for awhile.
This potato salad sounds great and not too difficult either. It definitely is healthy and also something different to try without the mayo. I am sure my family will enjoy this.
My family will be enjoying this tomorrow! Thanks!
May have to try this!
