Simple Vegan Potato Salad

Growing up we loved going on picnics, either as a family or with our our church. I can’t think of one good reason to be inside during the summer months, unless you are sleeping. So the more picnics, the better! We like to spend the whole afternoon outside lounging, playing, walking, relaxing, fishing, and just enjoying the fresh air!

Kids… I just love them! Plan to have fun outside together as a family this summer! Make sure you pack their favorite ball, your favorite flip-flops, and everyone’s soon to be favorite Vegan Potato Salad! While you are at it, you could also bring along some Easy Vegetable Pizza Wraps , No Bake Nutella S’mores Granola Bars , and Peanut Butter Rice Krispies Treats !

Tender Potatoes – Baby red potatoes are tender after about 15 minutes of boiling. The time may vary, so check your potatoes by sticking a fork into one of the potatoes. When it goes in easily, the potatoes are done. Remove from the stove and drain immediately. You don’t want the potatoes too soft, they will fall apart and won’t keep their form.

Measuring Potatoes – Use just a little over half of a 5 pound bag of baby red potatoes.

Double Recipe – You can easily double this recipe to feed a crowd!
