How to make Healthy Potato Salad

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I have had a number of requests for some healthy salad recipes so here is one of my favourites! This salad combines bitter kale and creamy potatoes in a delicious tangy wholegrain mustard and lime dressing. It’s a perfect side to rich hearty mains (think red meat or pasta dishes) and is super robust (it will last right through to the next day!). Though this a potato salad, I don’t use any cream or yogurt to form the dressing. To be very honest, though I love creamy potato salad, it’s just not feasible to enjoy n a regular basis.

This recipe will certainly change your outlook on potato salads!

What makes this salad AMAZING? The simple yet flavourful dressing. This is a super versatile dressing that can be used for so many different salads and combinations. The basic combination of lime, lime zest, wholegrain mustard and olive oil makes for a powerful mixture that you can use over and over again.
