This healthier potato salad is light on mayonnaise, but with bolstered flavor from the help of a sweet and tangy shot of balsamic vinegar.
Ingredients:
- 3-4 medium red potatoes, about 1 pound
- 1/2 small red onion, chopped or thinly sliced
- 1 stalk of celery, chopped
- 1 tablespoon of chopped pickles, preferably gherkins or cornichons, or use sweet radish
- 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise (healthier homemade version)
- 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon of white wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar
- 1 hard-boiled egg, chopped or sliced
- pinch of cayenne, optional
- pinch of smoked paprika, optional
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Place the potatoes in a pot of cold water, with 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes until tender when you test with the tip of a paring knife that can cut through without much resistance. Drain and cool. Cut into half inch chunks.
- Place cut potatoes, celery, pickles, onions, mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, and eggs in a bit bowl and toss to mix and coat evenly. Season with salt, pepper, cayenne and paprika.
