    Fingerling Potato Salad: A Fresh, Mayo-Free, Colorful Side Dish

    2
    By Alisa Fleming on August 31, 2017 Dairy-Free Recipes, Salad, Sides

    I know what many of you will say. “Alisa, mayo is naturally dairy free!” Yes, it is. But Go Dairy Free isn’t just a substitute website. We share all of the delicious food you can enjoy dairy free. That includes naturally dairy-free foods and recipes like this wonderful fingerling potato salad.

    Fingerling Potato Salad Recipe - a fresh, flavorful dish that's naturally dairy-free, gluten-free, plant-based, and allergy-friendly

    So when that friend bursts out with “I could never eat dairy free!” for the umpteenth time, you can set out this naturally dairy-free fingerling potato salad. Then ask them, “So you don’t like potato salad with a tangy lemon dressing, olive oil, and fresh herbs? Okay, more for the rest of us!” And this recipe really is perfect for almost all potluck guests and lunchboxes. Without the mayo, it’s also vegan and free of top allergens.

    Although you can dice up other potatoes to make this recipe, fingerlings do make it special. Fingerlings are small, narrow potatoes that you can get in yellow, red, or purple varieties. To achieve this pretty picture, use all three! If you can’t find fingerlings, substitute regular baby potatoes for a similar effect.

      This looks delicious! It’s so nice to see a dairy / mayo free potato salad recipe that doesn’t include mustard (one of our other allergens) – thank you! Look forward to trying this recipe this weekend.
