Mayonnaise Free Potato Salad

This mayonnaise-free potato salad is a lighter version of the well-known potato salad recipe. Although it is called a salad, it is actually a side dish as it usually accompanies the main course. It is mainly served at casual meals such as barbecues, potlucks picnics, and weekday dinners.

It is a popular menu choice when preparing food for a large number of people. It is easily made in large quantities, it can be prepared in advance and refrigerated until needed, and requires inexpensive ingredients.

This recipe tosses some new potatoes with a lemony dijon mustard dressing. The fresh herbs add a great aroma and a punch of flavor. The option to use scallions in place of onions, adds a freshness that makes this version of the salad an ideal make-ahead side dish for spring and summer dinners.
