Variations

There are so many ways to change this recipe up. Here are some of my favorite ideas:

  • Bacon: Everything is better with bacon. Cook the bacon crispy and then add it in the potato salad
  • Extra Pickles: So if you love pickles in this recipe, you can either add in more relish or you can dice pickles into small pieces and stir them in.
  • Sweet Pickles: You can also use sweet relish or sweet pickles.

If you do not love relish or pickles, you can certainly leave them out completely.

You can swap the mayo for Greek yogurt. You want to use plain, fat-free Greek yogurt. It adds a bit of tang to the dressing.

Want to make it vegan? Use a vegan mayo for this recipe and it will still taste amazing.
