Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 1.5 pounds waxy potatoes (e.g., Yukon Gold), washed and cut into bite-sized pieces
Deviled Eggs
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 2 tablespoons plant-based mayo (natural)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (natural)
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Other Ingredients
- 4 slices smoked turkey bacon, cooked crisp and chopped
- 1/2 cup celery, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- Additional salt and pepper, to taste
Optional Garnishes
- Paprika (natural), for sprinkling
- Fresh dill, for topping
- Thinly sliced green onions
Instructions
- Prepare the potatoes: Start by washing and cutting the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Boil them in salted water until tender but firm enough to hold their shape, about 10-15 minutes. Drain well and let them cool to room temperature.
- Make the deviled egg mixture: While the potatoes are cooking, carefully peel the hard-boiled eggs, slice them in half, and separate yolks from whites. Mash the yolks with plant-based mayo (natural), Dijon mustard (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Chop and combine: Dice the egg whites and smoked turkey bacon. Add these along with finely diced celery and freshly chopped herbs to a large mixing bowl containing the cooled potatoes.
- Mix the salad: Fold in the deviled egg mixture gently to coat all ingredients without mashing the potatoes. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding a little more apple cider vinegar (natural) or salt if needed.
- Chill and serve: Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least an hour to let the flavors meld together beautifully. Serve chilled and enjoy the delightful contrast of creamy, smoky, and fresh flavors.
Notes
- Do not overcook potatoes; slightly firm potatoes maintain the salad’s texture best.
- Refrigerating the salad for a few hours enhances flavor harmony.
- Cook smoked turkey bacon until crispy and drain excess fat for the best crunch.
- Chop fresh herbs just before mixing to keep their vibrant flavor and color.
- Adjust the amount of plant-based mayo (natural) depending on your desired creaminess level.
