Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 lbs uncooked red potatoes
3 slices turkey bacon (Louis Rich or other brand name)
1/2 cup scallion, chopped
1/4 cup reduced-calorie mayonnaise
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a large saucepan and pour in enough water to cover them; set pan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes are fork-tender, about 20 minutes; drain. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice each into quarters.
  • Meanwhile, cook bacon in a hot skillet or in the microwave until crisp; drain on paper towels. Break bacon into small pieces.
  • Transfer potatoes to a large bowl; add bacon and scallions. Add mayonnaise, vinegar, parsley, salt and pepper; mix until blended. Yields about 3/4 cup per serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Potatoes: For the best results, use waxy potatoes such as Red Bliss, Yukon Gold, or New Potatoes. These potatoes hold their shape well and won't get mushy when cooked.
  • Cook the Potatoes Properly: Boil the potatoes until they are just tender, but not overcooked. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and lose their shape.
  • Cool the Potatoes Completely: Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and rinse them with cold water. This will help to stop the cooking process and prevent the potatoes from becoming overcooked.
  • Use Low-Fat Mayonnaise: To reduce the fat and calories in your potato salad, use low-fat mayonnaise or Greek yogurt instead of regular mayonnaise.
  • Add Vegetables for Extra Nutrition: To boost the nutritional value of your potato salad, add some chopped celery, carrots, or red onion.
  • Use Fresh Herbs for Flavor: Fresh herbs such as parsley, cilantro, or chives can add a lot of flavor to your potato salad. Add them just before serving for the best results.

Conclusion:

Weight Watchers potato salad is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover potatoes and it is also a perfect dish for potlucks and picnics. With a few simple tips, you can make a Weight Watchers potato salad that is both flavorful and satisfying.
