Ingredients

  • 9 medium sized potatoes (roughly 1.5 to 2 pounds)
  • 4 hardboiled eggs
  • 2 celery ribs
  • ⅓ cup chopped onion
  • ¼ cup chopped pickles
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup Mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp. ground mustard
  • ¾ tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. pepper
  • Garnish with green onions or fresh dill

Instructions

  • Wash and cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Place in a pot cold water with a pinch of salt. Bring to boil and cook until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and allow to cool.
  • Chop the hardboiled eggs, celery, onion, and pickles. Try to keep everything fairly even in size so the texture stays balanced.
  • In a bowl, mix together ½ cup Greek yogurt, ¼ cup mayo, 1 tsp. ground mustard, ¾ tsp. salt, and ¼ tsp. pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Add cooled potatoes, eggs, celery, onion, and pickles to a large bowl. Pour dressing over the top and gently stir until everything is coated.
  • Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving. This helpings the flavors come together and tastes even better chilled over time.

Notes

Helpful tips:
  • Don't overcook the potatoes. You want them fork tender but not falling apart. 
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly before you add the Greek yogurt dressing. 
  • Chop the veggies evenly. 
  • Taste before chilling and adjust the salt and pepper as needed. 
  • The longer you can let chill the better. Potato salad is best once it has time to sit and chill, allowing the flavors to blend together.
