Yield 4-6 servings (side dish)
Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs. new potatoes, cubed
- ½ cup chopped red bell pepper
- ½ cup chopped celery (leaves included)
- 4 scallions, chopped (white and greens)
- ¾ cup purple grapes, sliced in half
- ¼ cup black olives, diced (oil cured, or from a can)
- ¼ cup chopped cilantro
- ¼ cup toasted pumpkin seeds
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. pepper
For the dressing:
- ⅔ cup Not Mayo (or vegan mayo of your choice)
- 3 T apple cider vingear
- 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Fill a medium saucepan about half full and set it over the heat to boil.
- As the water heats, cube the potatoes evenly. Once the water reaches boiling, drop them in—gently.
- While the potatoes boil, chop, dice and slice the rest of the add-ins.
- This is a good time to toast the pumpkin seeds, as well. Low-medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring often. Allow to cool before adding to the salad.
- Put all of the ingredients besides the potatoes and dressing in a large mixing bowl (don't forget the salt and pepper!).
- Test the potatoes frequently so you don't overcook them, which will cause them to be waterlogged and mushy.
- Once the potatoes are cooked through, rinse them well with cold water.
- Mix the dressing ingredients.
- Add the potatoes and dressing to the rest of the ingredients in the mixing bowl and gently fold them all together to combine.
