Creamy Greek Potato Salad image

Garlicky Greek yogurt tzatziki sauce forms the creamy base of this potato salad; a healthier, more protein-packed spin on the traditional mayo. Add kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, red onions, and cucumber for fun and refreshing summer salad.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 pounds red potatoes
1/2 red onion (diced)
1 medium cucumber (diced)
1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
1/2 cup kalamata olives (halved)
1/4 cup 2 ounces crumbled feta cheese (optional)
1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt (I use full fat, but lower fat should work fine too)
1 medium cucumber (grated)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
3 cloves garlic (finely minced)
1/4 cup fresh minced dill (lightly packed)
1/4 cup fresh minced peppermint (lightly packed (about 15 - 20 leaves))

Steps:

  • Set a large pot of water over high heat. Add the potatoes. Bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and rinse with cool water; set aside to cool.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, chop the other veggies and make the sauce.
  • To make the sauce, add all sauce ingredients to a medium bowl and mix thoroughly. Set aside. If you're not making the salad right away, refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to use.
  • Assemble the salad. Once the potatoes are cool enough to chop, cut into 3/4-inch chunks and add to a large salad bowl. Add the onion, cucumber, tomatoes, and olives. Add the sauce and toss gently until all of the veggies are coated. Sprinkle feta on top, if using. Serve.
  • May be made up to 24 hours ahead and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve. After it sits for a bit, the salad may get a little watery at the bottom thanks to the cucumbers, but just give it a stir and you're good to go.

I found that the potatoes were a bit undercooked for my liking, but that's easily fixed by boiling them for a few minutes longer.

This potato salad was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference.

I'm not usually a fan of potato salad, but this one is really good. The feta cheese and dill add a nice touch.
