Key Ingredients & Why They Matter

• Golden Potatoes: They have a subtle sweetness and hold their shape well when cooked. Essential for the creamy texture of this salad.
• Hard-Boiled Eggs: Rich in protein, they add a satisfying crunch to each bite. The yolk gets an extra flavor boost from the mayonnaise mixture.
• Mayo and Greek Yogurt: These provide the creamy base with a hint of tanginess that complements the potatoes beautifully.

How to Make Deviled Egg Potato Salad Step by Step

1. Cook the gold potatoes until tender. Let them cool, then peel and mash them in a large bowl. Add a splash of vinegar for extra flavor.
2. In another small bowl, mix mayonnaise with Greek yogurt, mustard, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This creamy dressing will infuse the potatoes with its rich flavors.
3. Halve the hard-boiled eggs and gently press them into the mashed potato mixture. Toss to combine until well-coated.
4. Add finely chopped red onion for a hint of sharpness, then sprinkle with paprika and fresh parsley for color and freshness.
5. Chill in the fridge before serving; this allows all flavors to meld together beautifully.

Tips, Substitutions & Variations

• Substitute Greek yogurt with sour cream: If you prefer a richer flavor or want more tanginess.
• Add diced celery or pickles for extra crunch: This will give the salad a bit of texture and flavor variation.
• Vary the dressing: Swap out mustard with dijon or use a different type of vinegar like apple cider for a twist.
• Incorporate other vegetables: Sliced bell peppers or chopped cucumbers can add more color and freshness to your salad.
