Make Purple Potato Salad Dairy Free for a Healthy Version

This dairy free purple potato salad is a fantastic take on the classic without all the dairy. I’m all about making recipes plant-based and dairy free when I can. Dairy-free cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. You can achieve total richness and creaminess with some simple swaps. By building meals around vegan pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make healthier meals for you and your family. I made a list of my 125 favorite vegan pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my vegan recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and healthy recipes are fantastic meatless and dairy free meals for your table.

How Do I Make Purple Potato Salad, No Mayo?

  1. Add chopped purple potatoes to a medium pot. Cover with cold water to about 1 inch over the potatoes. Bring to a boil, then allow potatoes to cook for 6 to 8 minutes until they are fork tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, add the cooked potatoes, chopped celery, green onions, parsley and dill.  Toss well to combine.
  3. To make the dressing, add all the dressing ingredients to a blender (olive oil, parsley, green onion, dill, lemons, dijon mustard, and garlic). Blend on low speed and work up to high speed until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour dressing over potato salad and toss well so each potato is coated in dressing. Serve warm or allow the potato salad to chill. Will last up to 3 days covered in the refrigerator.
