Ok People you need to bring this Vegan Potato Salad to your next Bbq or potluck. It’s creamy, tangy, crunchy, delicious and dairy free and egg free of course. It’s the Best Recipe!
What makes this Vegan Potato Salad stand out you ask?
Steamed creamy red potatoes for starters. Then you have your crunchy mixed veggies, dill pickles, and a delicious, creamy, bright and slightly smoky dressing, made with vegan mayonnaise (vegenaise), fresh herbs and spices.
Black salt makes this potato salad top notch and gives it a slight eggy flavour, that I love. So if you enjoyed eggs in your Potato Salad in the past, give the black salt a try you’ll love it.
This Vegan potato salad has all the classic flavours and more!
How to make Vegan Potato Salad:
This Salad is super simple and straight forward. Peel chop and steam your potatoes, drain and add to large serving bowl. Let cool to room temp, add your chopped vegetables and dressing. Mix it up. Chill in the fridge and Voila, your ready for your Bbq.
I also recommend using red potatoes for this recipe as they have lower starch content which means they take on less water when cooked and will hold their shape better. I’d avoid Russets as they are a high starch potato and don’t hold their shape when cooked.

Thank you so much Stephen, glad you enjoyed it!
I made this recipe today. It is absolutely delicious. I did not have liquid smoke on hand, so I sprinkled in some smoked paprika and a little cayenne for some kick. Excellent! Thank you for the recipe.

Thank you so much for your comment Yvette? I’m glad you loved it. Your add ins sound delicious! I will have to try!
This looks amazing! I don’t have liquid smoke, would it make a big deference just leaving it out?
Hi Aneta ? It will still be delicious without, but I recommend grabbing some for next time. I used to put bacon in my potato salad ( long day ago) and it was my husbands favorite salad. So the liquid smoke adds that little touch of smoky flavour. It’s tasty! Let me know how the recipe goes. Have a great day Aneta!
This salad is so delicious! Very filling and flavourful. Great inside a wrap as well. Definitely making this a staple in my weekly meal plan.
