Ingredients

• 2 pounds Red potatoes
• 0.5 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
• 0.25 cup Low-fat mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 2 Celery stalks, diced
• 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized chunks.

Step 2

Place the potato chunks into a large pot and cover them with cold water.

Step 3

Add a pinch of salt to the water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Be careful not to overcook them.

Step 5

Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them cool slightly while you prepare the dressing.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the non-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar until smooth and well-combined.

Step 7

Add the diced celery, finely chopped red onion, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to the dressing. Stir until evenly mixed.

Step 8

Once the potatoes are slightly cooled but still warm, add them to the dressing mixture in the bowl.

Step 9

Gently toss the potatoes with the dressing until all the pieces are evenly coated. Be careful not to mash the potatoes.

Step 10

Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 11

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the potato salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 12

Serve chilled or at room temperature as a light and healthy side dish.
