SALSA POTATO SALAD

"Summer is a great time for potato salad but making it with regular mayonnaise adds too much fat," writes Janet Lewis of Bangor, Pennsylvania. "Salsa perks up this version and disguises the fact that it uses fat-free items."

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as red potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, making them ideal for potato salad.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are just tender: Overcooked potatoes will become mushy in the salad.
  • Cool the potatoes completely before adding them to the salad: This will prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to salsa, you can add other vegetables to your potato salad, such as celery, onion, cucumber, and bell pepper.
  • Use a flavorful dressing: A good dressing will bring all the flavors of the salad together. You can use a store-bought dressing or make your own.
  • Chill the salad before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and the salad will be more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Salsa potato salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, main course, or snack. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a new potato salad recipe, give salsa potato salad a try!
