Potato Salad Recipes (without mayo)?

[sunbrie]

Hi everyone! I'm having a labor day picnic (no rain, please!) and was wondering what your favorite potato salad recipes without mayo are. I have CL going back a year, so a recipe name and/or date would be fine. Thanks!

[lindrusso]

I don't have a CL recipe, but wanted to let you know that I was looking for the same thing recently and did a search at www.epicurious.com (http://www.epicurious.com) - as I recall it pulled up some WONDERFUL-sounding recipes.

i absolutely love the "Garlicky Roasted Potato Salad" from spring '99(?) it has no mayo, just a tiny bit of plain yogurt. it's best eaten the day it's made, though.

I make a wonderful Greek potato salad. I pulled it from the paper a few years back and it has become a treasured recipe! I'm at work, so I'll have to post it tomorrow. You use red bliss potatoes, feta cheese, red onion, sundried tomatoes or cherry tomatoes, cucumber and olives. The dressing is made with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and oregano. If anyone is interested, I'll post it!

Yum! Lauren, please do post the Greek potato salad. We love anything Greek! Thanks.

These are from CL May '94 - A whole article on low fat potato salads.

Hope you enjoy. Neither one has mayo and there's a caesar one in that issue too with out mayo. I've made the first one several times and everyone really goes for it. This thread has made me remember this potato salad. Thanks! http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/wink.gif

This is really good & a bit different from "regular" potato salad....

Summer Potato & Green Bean Salad (4-6 serv)

Whisk together:
2 Tbs white wine vinegar
1 Tbs vegetable oil
salt & pepper to taste

2 lbs red potatoes, cooked in salted water, drained, peeled while hot, diced
2 Tbs minced green onion

Pour the wine mixture over the potatoes & toss gently, separating the potato pieces. Fold in green onion. Cool to room temp.

1/2 lb green beans, steamed tender crisp
2 Tbs minced tarragon
1 Tbs capers
2 small ripe tomatoes, quartered

Vinaigrette:
3 Tbs tarragon vinegar
9 Tbs vegetable oil
salt & pepper to taste

Add 1/2 C vinaigrette to potato mixture. Adjust seasoning. Fold green beans, tarragon & capers into salad. Moisten with more vinaigrette if needed. Garnish with tomatoes. Serve at room temp.

I decided I didn't need the tomatoes, but if you are overrun with tomatoes, then use them!

Lauren, definately post your Greek potato salad recipe -- it sounds great!

Also, in case everyone hasn't gotten their September issue yet, there is an interesting looking recipe in this new issue for a lentil-potato salad that also has no mayo.

[Lauren]

I'll remember to bring the recipe for the Greek potato salad to work tomorrow. We had the second meeting of our dinner group last night (great food and great company!!) and I had a hard time getting up this morning!

By the way, we decided to do an Indian meal next month. If anyone has recipes to share, we would appreciate it.

Greek Potato Salad

1 lb. red potatoes, scrubbed, sliced
1 cup dried tomato halves (or cherry tomatoes)
1 cup sliced seedless cucumber
1/2 cup sliced red onion
1 cup crumbled feta
1/2 cup Greek olives (or pitted olives)
lemon dressing recipe follows:

Cook potatoes until tender. Drain well. Cover dried tomatoes with boiling water for 10 minutes, skip this if using tomatoes in oil or fresh. Add cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, cheese and olives to potatoes. Toss well. Dressing: Whisk 1/4 cup each olive oil and water, 2-1/2 T. lemon juice, 1 large garlic clove pressed, 1 T chopped fresh oregano (or 1tsp. dried), 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper. I use a Tupperware shake container to mix the dressing. Toss over the potato mixture. I usually don't need all the dressing, so pour a little at a time. It's very good!
