Super-easy Potato Salad


This could not be simpler and was quite tasty! I don't care for a very mayonnaisey-taste in my cold salad....never been a big fan of mayo. But I also don't like potato salad that is too dry. I thought this combination had just the right amount of creamy-ness plus a lot of flavor and a little crunch.






  • Peel 6 large Yukon gold potatoes, place in a pot of cold water (enough to cover the potatoes) and bring to a boil.


  • Boil the potatoes until they are soft and can easily be pierced with a fork.


  • Drain the potatoes and allow to cool a bit.


  • Mash them up a bit - basically to the consistency of very lumpy mashed potatoes - with a folk or other mashing device.


  • Add 3-4 tablespoons of light mayo...you want to add enough to bind it together but not so that the mayo flavor is overwhelming.


  • Add 6 finely chopped scallions, both green and white parts.


  • Add 6 finely minced celery ribs.


  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.


Goes great with slight spicy ribs or other BBQ!
