Light Dilled Potato Salad

Light Dilled Potato Salad
By Maureen Bevelaqua, from Family Circle magazine

Cook potatoes using steps 1 and 2 of Martha Stewart’s recipe for Basic Potato Salad

  • 4 pounds small red or white thin-skinned potatoes, scrubbed, cut into 3/4’” chunks, and steamed until tender (9 cups)
  • 2 Tbs. olive oil
  • 2 Tbs. cider vinegar
  • 1 c. light mayonnaise (I use less and use regular Hellman’s)
  • 1 c. plain nonfat yogurt (Greek is best)
  • 2 Tbs. Dijon mustard
  • 1 ½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. pepper
  • 1 c. minced red onion
  • ½ c. minced fresh dill

Put potato chunks in large bowl. Sprinkle with olive oil and vinegar, toss lightly to coat.

Mix mayo, yogurt, mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Stir in onions and dill. Pour over potatoes. Toss gently to coat. Cover and chill.

Note: To make ahead, cook potatoes, toss with oil and vinegar, and refrigerate. Make dressing ahead and chill. Combine dressing and potatoes a couple hours before serving and chill.

Broccoli slaw salad

I got this from Jane Brencic. It might be a Weight Watchers recipe.

  • 1 16 oz package Mann’s Broccoli Cole Slaw
  • 1 cup canned water chestnuts, drained and sliced into thin strips
  • 1 cup canned mandarin orange segments packed in water or juice, drained and chopped (and rinsed, if packed in juice)
  • 1 cup chopped scallions
  • 2/3 cup Newman’s Own Lighten Up Low Fat Sesame Ginger Dressing (LD used less)
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds

Mix all ingredients well. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Stir well before serving.
