This Red Bliss Potato Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette is delicious. With it's 'no mayo' dressing, it's bound to be everyone's favorite picnic salad.

May is National Salad Month so to kick off  the unofficial summer barbecue and party season, I will be bringing you a new salad recipe each day this week to get you ready. Especially since Memorial Day is right around the corner (can you believe it?!).

The first salad I made for you this week is Red Bliss Potato Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette.

Potato Salad is one of my favorite salads to make during the Summer. However, as much as I like the traditional mayo-based salads, they don't hold up as well in hot summer months without taking extra safety precautions.

Well that, and "R" doesn't like mayonnaise...at all! I've made a few other non-mayo salads, but this one is probably my favorite.

Red Bliss Potato Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette

How do you make potato salad with dijon vinaigrette?

First, you'll need red bliss potatoes, celery, onions and prepared dijon vinaigrette. Start by scrubbing the potato skins with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt; then add the potatoes to a large pot and fill with water.

Bring the potatoes to a boil over medium-high heat; then allow to cook until fork tender; approximately 25-30 minutes.

Drain and cool. While the potatoes are cooking, make the dijon vinaigrette. Combine sugar, vinegar, mustard and a light oil in a small bowl and whisk until it's emulsified.

When the potatoes are mostly cool, cut them in half lengthwise, then in half again; then slice into ¼" thick slices.

Next, add the potatoes to a bowl along with the celery, onions and prepared dijon vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper, mix well; then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

This deliciously light Red Bliss Potato Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette has just the right amount of tang and would go perfectly with any grilled meat or fish you serve it with. ~Enjoy!

    Carrie,
    This potato salad looks so yummy! My kids have been asking for potato salad, and I keep meaning to get my act together. I like how you've included celery--I love that in a potato salad.
    Thanks!

    My mom could be a professional potato salad maker, if there was one.

    She is definitely getting the link to this emailed to her. This sounds fantastic!

    (I love being her guinea pig!!)

    Thanks for this, Carrie! (Saw your post in Mike's "Culinary Lens Newspaper.") I love mayonnaise, but vinaigrette-based potato salads appeal even more. Yours looks entirely tasty!
