Ingredients

  • 12 oz baby potatoes (about 12 potatoes), halved, skin on
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt plain
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ⅛ tsp pepper

  • 2 tbsp dill fresh, chopped
  • 1 tbsp parsley fresh, chopped
  • 1 egg hard-boiled, chopped

Equipment

  • Steamer
  • Mixing bowl

Instructions

  • Steam the baby potatoes for about 12-15 minutes until fork-tender. Let them cool completely to help lower the glycemic impact.
    12 oz baby potatoes
  • In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
    ¼ cup Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp olive oil, ¼ tsp salt, ⅛ tsp pepper, ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • Add the cooled potatoes, green onions, celery, radishes, dill, and parsley to the bowl. Gently toss to combine.

  • Fold in the chopped hard-boiled egg.
    1 egg
  • Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Cooking Tips

  • Cooling the Potatoes: Allowing the potatoes to cool completely after steaming helps form resistant starch, which reduces their glycemic impact.
  • Herb Variations: Add fresh chives, basil, or tarragon for a different flavour profile.
  • Make Ahead: This salad tastes even better after a few hours in the fridge as the flavours meld together.
  • Egg-Free Option: Omit the hard-boiled egg for a plant-based version or replace it with extra celery or cucumber for added crunch.
  • Serving Suggestion: Pair this salad with grilled chicken, fish, or tofu for a complete, balanced meal.
