• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the red potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into uniform, bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Step 3

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the avocado dressing. In a medium bowl, mash the avocados until smooth.

To the mashed avocados, add lemon juice, dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 6

Dice the celery stalks and set them aside.

Step 7

Once the potatoes are done, drain them and let them cool slightly in the colander.

Step 8

Transfer the potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add the diced celery, sliced green onions, and fresh dill.

Step 9

Pour the avocado dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss to combine, making sure all the pieces are well coated with the dressing.

Step 10

Taste and adjust the seasonings if necessary. Add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as desired.

Step 11

Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 12

Serve chilled and enjoy your Paleo Classic Potato Salad!
