Whether you're looking for something classic or something a little different, you can create a dairy-free potato salad that everyone will enjoy. Start with a base of potatoes and add in any mix-ins you like to create a delicious and unique dish. Try adding in some fresh vegetables, like bell peppers, celery, and onions, for a crunchy texture. Or, add in some pickles, olives, and capers for a tangy kick. If you're looking for some extra flavor, add in some fresh herbs, like dill, parsley, and chives. To make it a complete meal, add in some cooked bacon or chicken.
For a dairy-free version, use a mayonnaise alternative, like vegan mayonnaise, or make your own from scratch. You can also use a dairy-free yogurt or sour cream to add some creaminess. For extra flavor, add a splash of vinegar, lemon juice, or a bit of Dijon mustard. And if you want to add some heat, mix in a bit of hot sauce or a jalapeno.
Once you've added all your mix-ins, season the salad with salt and pepper. Then, mix everything together and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. You can also make this ahead of time and let it sit overnight for a more flavorful potato salad. Serve the finished dish alongside your favorite grilled meats or seafood for a perfect summer meal.
