  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 810 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

3 pounds Yukon Gold or red potatoes, quartered

Kosher salt

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 1/4 cups plain Greek yogurt or mayonnaise

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1/4 teaspoon freshly-cracked black pepper

4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and diced

2 medium avocados, peeled, pitted, and diced

1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced or diced

1/2 cup chopped celery (about 23 ribs)

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Optional toppings: pinch of chili powder, extra cilantro, extra black pepper

Instructions

  • Place quartered potatoes in a large stockpot and cover with cold water, about 1 inch above the potatoes. Add 1 tablespoon kosher salt.

  • Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 15–20 minutes until fork-tender.

  • Drain and let cool slightly. Remove skins, dice potatoes into bite-sized pieces, and sprinkle with apple cider vinegar. Set aside.

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), Dijon mustard, and black pepper.

  • Add potatoes, diced eggs, avocado, red onion, celery, and cilantro. Gently toss to combine.

  • Garnish with optional toppings.

  • Serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap touching the salad surface to reduce browning, and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

Notes

  • For extra tang, add a splash more vinegar.

  • Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

  • Use dairy-free yogurt to make it vegan (also omit eggs).
