| My Favorite Potato Salad |
So far we’ve given you fruit salad recipes. So to round out the trilogy we have (insert drum roll) potato salad! This sour cream variety is my favorite. You can always experiment with a variety of veggies for added crunch and color. If you really want to be colorful, try it with purple or red potatoes (I like the small, 2” size)!
POTATO SALAD
| 8 medium | Potatoes – washed, unpeeled & cut to bite size pieces (about 7 cups) | | 1/3 cup | Fat free Italian dressing | | 4-5 large | Eggs, hard boiled | | 1 cup | Light mayo | | ½ cup | Fat free sour cream | | ¾ cup | Celery, chopped | | ¾ cup | Bell peppers, chopped (any color) | | ½ cup | Green onions, chopped | | 2 tsp | Horseradish mustard | | ½ Tbsp | Celery seed | | ½ Tbsp | Dill (dry) |
Place potato pieces into a large pot over high heat with enough water to just cover them. Bring to a boil for 5-8 minutes or until you can just pass a fork thru the pieces. When done, drain, place in a large bowl and pour Italian dressing over. Toss gently, cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
Separate egg whites and yolks; chop whites. In a separate bowl, mash yolks, then add mayo, sour cream, mustard, celery seed, dill and mix well. Next, mix in egg whites, celery and peppers. Pour mixture over chilled potatoes and toss gently until potatoes are well covered. Add salt and pepper to taste. Chill at least 2 hours before serving, or preferably overnight.

This sounds delicious! How many servings does it make, and how many calories per serving? Thanks!

This recipe serves 8-10 people, depending on the serving size you dish out. For 1/8 of the recipe its 326 calories and 13 g fat and for 1/10 of the recipe its only 260 calories and 10g fat.
Remember, regular potato salad contains 450-500 calories and 24-28g fat for the same size serving (1/8 recipe)! That’s a big ‘fat’ savings (pun intended)!
Enjoy!
