A healthy Easy Vegan Potato Salad (No Mayo) that tastes amazing, is quick to make, and will impress your vegan guests.
This recipe is stable in my household.
I grew up eating potatoes – so potatoes have always been a part of my diet. But this healthy vegan potato salad is a must during the week. It’s an easy garnish for almost any dish, and it’s easy to pack for work.
Since I am on the healthy side of things, I found a way of making a delicious vegan potato salad – without the mayonnaise. There are some great vegan mayonnaises out there, but they still contain a lot of fat and unhealthy ingredients, so I stay away from them when I can.
So what did I use instead of the mayonnaise? – low-fat vegan cream cheese! Any brand out there will do, but I try to opt for the ones with less processed ingredients or flavorings.
So if you have a favorite vegan cream cheese you like to buy, it will work great in the place for the mayo.

An important tip for making any potato salad is to never overcook the potatoes! If you do, you will end up with a mashed potato salad. Which I guess isn’t too bad, but you want those potatoes to have some bite on them.
The salad once made will keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days, making it perfect to garnish with different meals.
