Potatoes are a staple for household dinners, regardless of the event, from mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving to selfmade candy potato fries on the aspect of a freshly grilled burger in the summertime. They’re starchy, filling, and present a ton of vitamins per serving.

Normally, potato salad is extra of a summer time dish, however I’ve discovered a singular option to put together it that makes it good for any and all seasons. In reality, the recipe I’m sharing right this moment is the right addition to your desk ANY time of 12 months.

Excessive-Protein Potato Salad

Normally, potato salad is fat-laden, very heavy, and type of…bland when it comes to style. However my kicked-up, protein-packed model is the full reverse!

By swapping out the normal dressing elements (like mayo or cream-based sauces) for high-protein, low-sugar Icelandic-style Skyr, the calorie content material is slashed in half, and the protein content material of the normal carb-heavy aspect is elevated. The marginally candy, tart taste of the skyr retains this salad gentle, zesty, and recent!

The addition of pickles provides a pleasant salty counterbalance, whereas the steamed lentils add EVEN MORE plant-based protein to this wholesome dish. This distinctive mixture of tastes and textures will delight your loved ones or friends.

I do know this potato salad sounds a little bit kooky because it features a ‘candy’ taste of skyr, however I swear it’s scrumptious! Like I stated, the Siggi’s selection I used has a really gentle, candy taste. It’s not overwhelming, and it lends itself as an ideal counterbalance to the extra salty elements.

I’m all the time in search of distinctive twists on basic dishes, and this recipe actually suits the invoice! I can’t wait to share it with my household quickly!
