I’m originally from the Midwest where potato salad was practically a staple, but quite frankly most potato salads are too heavy and laden with too much fat. This healthy take on a childhood favorite is a slimmed-down version that has just the right level of tangy flavor.

  • 3 Pounds Yukon Gold Potatoes (Peeled & Diced)
  • 1 1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 3/4 Cup Buttermilk
  • 1/4 Cup Reduced Fat Mayonnaise
  • 2 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Dill
  • 2 Tablespoons Cider Vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard
  • 2 Scallions (Thinly Sliced)
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper
  1. In medium-size saucepan, combine potatoes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and enough water to cover. Heat to boiling over a high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes until potatoes are just fork-tender.
  2. Meanwhile, in large-size bowl, whisk buttermilk with mayonnaise, dill, vinegar, Dijon mustard, scallions, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, red pepper flakes, and pepper.
  3. Drain potatoes well. Toss hot potatoes with buttermilk mixture until coated. Mixture should look very loose before chilling. Cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight to blend flavors and chill. Gently stir after 1 hour.
  4. Makes 6 cups
  5. Serves 4
  6. "Work With What You Got!"
