Potato salad is one of my favourite side dishes to have. It’s creamy, filling and can be full of flavour if you season it right. I thought why not kick it up a notch by adding more flavour with dill pickles, pickle juice and dill along with many other spices and additions!
This version is also vegan – completely meat-free down the mayonnaise being used.
For this recipe I’m using EarthFresh organic baby red potatoes. Since the potatoes are baby-sized, they cook within 10-12 minutes! It’s best to let the flavours soak in overnight for optimal taste. For the vegan mayo, I’m using called Follow Your Heart Vegenaise.
Well I hope you try this recipe and enjoy it! If you do please share it with your family and friends.
Take care,

- 1.5 lbs organic EarthFresh red baby potatoes, quartered & skin on
- 1/2 cup of fresh dill, finely chopped

INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare your ingredients as listed above. Bring a medium pot of water to boil. Add in your chopped baby potatoes (with skin on). Boil for 10-12 minutes until you can poke a fork through it with ease. Strain the potatoes in a colander.

- Gently mix together with a spatula until well combined. For optimal taste, store in the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight. But if you’re impatient like me, you can enjoy right away!
Delicious! i had already cooked 6 russet potatoes, so used them in this recipe. I’m taking the potato salad to a Vegan Potluck at the beach tonight. I was looking for a potato salad recipe with dill pickles (instead of sweet pickle relish) and this turned out to be just what I was looking for.
Wow thanks so much for your kind comment! I really appreciate that and I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe! I love dill pickles and i find they have so much to offer in terms of flavour. Have a great time enjoying my potato salad on the beach tonight!
