Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes and Eggs
- 1.5 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
Deviled Egg Filling
- 6 tablespoons plant-based mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (natural)
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Salad Add-ins
- 4 slices smoked turkey bacon, chopped
- 1/2 cup celery, finely diced
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the potatoes: Wash the Yukon gold potatoes thoroughly. Boil them in salted water for 15-20 minutes until tender but firm enough to hold their shape. Drain and allow to cool completely, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Make the deviled eggs: Peel the hard-boiled eggs and slice them in half. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Mash the yolks with plant-based mayonnaise, Dijon mustard (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), salt, and freshly ground black pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Combine the salad ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the diced potatoes, deviled egg filling, chopped smoked turkey bacon, finely diced celery, green onions, and fresh herbs. Gently fold together to maintain texture.
- Adjust seasoning and chill: Taste the salad and add more salt, pepper, or a splash of apple cider vinegar (natural) if desired. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and chill before serving.
Notes
- Use room-temperature potatoes to keep the filling creamy but firm.
- Gently fold ingredients to maintain some chunkiness and visual appeal.
- Chill the salad to develop flavors and enhance taste.
- Make the deviled eggs up to a day in advance to save time.
- Add toasted nuts or seeds for extra texture if desired.
