An all-American homemade potato salad, made with a dijon and vegan mayonnaise sauce and vegetarian bacon bits.
Ingredients
  • 4 large potatoes, chopped
  • water for boiling potatoes
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing
  • 3/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 cup sliced black olives
  • 2 cups celery, diced
  • 1 1/2 red onions, diced
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/3 cup vegetarian bacon bits
Instructions
  1. Boil potatoes in water just until soft. Allow to cool.
  2. Whisk together the balsamic vinaigrette and the vegan mayonnaise, then gently toss together with potatoes and other ingredients, except vegetarian bacon bits. Chill.
  3. Add vegetarian bacon bits just before serving so that they stay crispy and crunchy.
  4. To make a low fat/lower calorie version: use low fat or no-fat mayo
