Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Baby potatoes
• 2 medium Roasted red peppers (jarred or freshly roasted)
• 0.5 medium Red onion
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 cup Vegan mayo
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 clove Garlic clove, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and halve the baby potatoes. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Reduce to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the roasted red peppers. If using jarred peppers, drain and pat them dry. If roasting fresh peppers, char them over an open flame or under a broiler, peel off the skin, remove the seeds, and dice into small pieces.

Step 4

Finely dice the red onion, chop the parsley, and chop the dill.

Step 5

In a large bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, vegan mayo, lemon juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 6

Add the cooled potatoes, diced roasted red peppers, diced red onion, parsley, and dill to the bowl with the dressing.

Step 7

Gently toss everything together until the potatoes are well coated and the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to suit your preference.

Step 9

Chill the potato salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 10

Serve cold or at room temperature. Garnish with additional parsley or dill, if desired.
