Creamy Dill Potato Salad combines the buttery texture of Yukon Golds with crunchy celery, fresh dill and a creamy dressing.

I have a confession, I am not a huge fan of mayonnaise or Miracle Whip. I actually will eat potato salads and pasta salads that other people make, but I prefer to work with it on a limited basis. This is strange I know, but it’s just one of my quirky issues, don’t worry, I will share more at a later date 🙂

My daughter Mackenzie needed to make something for a pot luck at work (Park Ridge Organics) and she was paging through my latest Real Simple and came across this recipe for Creamy Dill Potato Salad. We had just gotten dill and celery in our weekly vegetable box and luckily this recipe called for both…..score! Mackenzie and I made the potato salad for the pot luck and it received rave reviews.

The dressing is made mostly of olive oil and a little mayonnaise, plus the addition of a spicy mustard and vinegar. I like the crunch of the celery against the creamy potatoes. Fresh dill is the bomb and it really kills in this recipe.

Enjoy!

I have a super easy and super delicious side dish for you today, Dill Fingerling Potatoes. Fingerling potatoes are sauteed in olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper. Once the potatoes are cooked, you add some fresh dill into the mix.

If you are not familiar with fingerling potatoes, they are small potatoes that kinds of look like crooked fingers. They are small, have tender skins so you can cook with the skins on and that adds extra nutrients to the dish.

Serve these along side a burger, steak, pork chop or your favorite chicken recipe. I don’t know anyone that doesn’t like potatoes as a side dish.

Saute the fingerling potatoes in olive oil.

Add fresh dill in at the end.

Dill Fingerling Potatoes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/4 pounds fingerling potatoes, rinsed but not peeled
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

Instructions

Melt the butter in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot. Add the whole potatoes, salt, and pepper, and toss well. Cover the pot tightly and cook over low heat for 20 to 30 minutes, until the potatoes are just tender when tested with a small knife. From time to time, shake the pot without removing the lid to prevent the bottom potatoes from burning.
Turn off the heat and allow the potatoes to steam for another 5 minutes. Don't overcook. Toss with the dill, and serve hot.
