I am not always a huge fan of potato salad, but that is because I am not a huge fan of regular mayo! The store bought salad is mushy, has a strong flavor of mayo, and is packed full of crap. The potato salad I like is homemade and has lots of tang to it. This Dairy-Free Potato Salad is just that... tangy, creamy and full of different flavors!
Potato salad is the perfect dish to bring to your next BBQ or just to have on burger night at home. I like making extras of this recipe so I can have leftovers for a few days because it just gets better with time. You can serve this warm or chill it in the fridge, I like it both ways!
In this recipe is is really to make your own mayo, I like this egg-free recipe that uses Artisana Coconut butter. You can also use store-bought Avocado Mayo. I highly recommend Chosen Foods brand for this! The key is to find a mayo that you really like and I promise no one will notice this is dairy-free.
Tips for Dairy-free Potato Salad:
- If you can find dill relish, that will save you some chopping of the pickles. However, I also like the bit from the fresh pickles (Grillo's Pickles are my favorite).
- If red wine vinegar is a bit too intense for you, use any vinegars you like! Apple cider vinegar and champagne vinegar would be great substitutes.
- I like red potatoes best with this recipe, but you can use any potato you like.
