Ingredients

• 2 pounds red potatoes
• 2 celery stalks
• 0.5 red onion
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill
• 0.75 cup vegan mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Scrub the red potatoes clean and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Leave the skin on for added texture and color.

Step 2

Fill a large pot with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring it to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and cook for about 10-15 minutes, until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork. Do not overcook them.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the celery stalks and red onion. Set them aside.

Step 4

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Allow them to cool completely.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Gently fold the cooled potatoes, chopped celery, red onion, and fresh dill into the dressing until all the ingredients are well coated.

Step 7

Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Serve your Vegan Classic Red Potato Salad chilled as a refreshing side dish.
