Place the potato cubes in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the low-fat mayonnaise, plain non-fat Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, fresh dill, black pepper, and additional salt to taste if needed.

Once the potatoes have cooled, transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

Add the chopped celery, red onion, and dill pickles to the potatoes.

Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss until everything is well coated.

Step 10
