Creamy Potato Salad - Oil Free
Equipment
- 1 High speed blender
Ingredients
- 3 c cooked potatoes with skins red or gold potatoes work best
- 1/2 c raw cashews
- 1/2 c silken tofu
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp white vinegar
- 1 tsp garlic powder

- 1 tbsp dill, dried
- dash of smoked paprika on top, if desired
Instructions
- Cook the potatoes until fork tender. Drain the water, place in a large bowl and set aside.
- Mash the potatoes until desired consistency. I like to leave them a little chunkier. They will breakup more as you stir in the sauce and other ingredients.
- Blend together all of the sauce ingredients (cashews, tofu, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, garlic and onion powder, white miso, and non-dairy milk in a high-speed blender until smooth.
- Add the chopped red onions, celery, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, and dried dill to the large bowl. Stir well and then fold in the sauce.
- Sprinkle on smoked paprika and refrigerate until ready to serve. ENJOY!
