Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 pounds round white and/or red potatoes
1 cup low-fat mayonnaise or light salad dressing
1 carton (8 oz) fat-free sour cream or 1 cup Yoplait® plain fat-free yogurt
2 tablespoons fat-free milk
1 teaspoon seasoned pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and chopped
3/4 cup sliced green onions
1/2 cup cubed reduced-fat cheddar cheese (2 ounces)
2 slices reduced-sodium bacon or turkey bacon, crisp-cooked and crumbled
Fat-free milk (optional)
1 avocado

Steps:

  • In a covered large saucepan, cook potatoes in a large amount of boiling water for 20 to 25 minutes or just until tender. Drain and cool. Cut potatoes into bite-size cubes.
  • In a very large bowl, stir together mayonnaise, sour cream, the 2 tablespoons milk, the seasoned pepper, and salt. Gently stir in potato cubes, hard-cooked eggs, green onions, and cheese. Cover and chill for 2 to 24 hours. Cover and chill bacon separately.
  • Stir salad. If salad seems dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons additional milk. Tote salad and bacon in an insulated cooler with ice packs. To serve, seed, peel, and chop avocado; stir avocado and bacon into salad.

I'm not a big fan of avocado, but I actually really liked this salad. The avocado flavor is subtle and it's not overpowering.

This salad is so versatile. You can add different ingredients to it to change up the flavor. I've added chopped tomatoes, corn, and black beans before.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I usually have some leftover from making mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes.

This salad is the perfect balance of flavors. The avocado and lime give it a creamy and tangy taste, while the potatoes and bacon add a savory and smoky flavor.
