Classic Vegan Potato Salad - just like mom used to make, with pickle - a picnic favorite gets a plant based update that tastes just like the original!
Classic Vegan Pickle Potato Salad
I am so ready for summer.
For longer and warmer days, when our patio and deck become an extension of the living room. We are ready to drag out the patio furniture, fire up the grill, have people over for all the summer food favorites.
One of my summer food favorites is a Classic Vegan Pickle Potato Salad that I have adapted over the years from the recipe I grew up with - my moms potato salad. Classic flavors, not a lot of extras to distract from that simplicity I love.
I add extra dill pickle flavor to mine, though. A tangy tasty crunch.
Of course, while we have had a string of record breaking high temperatures, today as I type this I am freezing and the heat is back on. The potato salad is still good, though.

This sounds so fabulous!! I am all over pickles in my mayo-based salads too. Got to love that vinegar and extra crunch. I like your bowl too! I'm such a big fan of Jeanette's pottery.
