Description

This recipe is a twist on the classic potato salad. Greek yogurt is used instead of mayonnaise to increase the protein content, and potatoes are a nutrient-dense complex carbohydrate.

Ingredients

  • 4 small yellow potatoes (about 21 oz.), scrubbed and washed
  • ¼ sweet yellow onion, small diced
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 1 5.3 oz container of plain Greek yogurt, 2% or nonfat

Optional Mix Ins

  • 1 cup pulled chicken
  • ½ cup small diced celery
  • ½ cup diced bell peppers
  • ¼ cup shredded cheese
  • Hot sauce, to taste

Preparation

  1. Poke potatoes with a knife or fork several times around the potato. Place on a microwave-safe plate.
  2. Microwave the potatoes on full power for 7-9 minutes, or until they are soft and easily cut in half.
  3. While potatoes are cooking, combine eggs, onion, Dijon mustard, and yogurt in a bowl. Set aside in the fridge.
  4. Chop cooked potatoes into bite-size pieces. Place potatoes in the refrigerator until cooled completely, about 15 minutes.
