Basic Vegan Potato Salad

By , About.com Guide

A recipe for a basic vegan potato salad, using vegan egg-free mayonnaise. Vegan potato salad is perfect to bring to a picnic, potluck or vegetarian barbecue.

Ingredients:

  • 5-6 potatos, boiled just until soft, then cooled
  • 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise (I like Vegenaise brand best)
  • 3 tbsp vinegar
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 1/3 cup sliced black olives (optional)
  • 1/4 cup vegetarian bacon bits (optional)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

Once the potatoes have cooled, peel if desired, and chop into bite-sized pieces.

Gently toss together all the ingredients in a large bowl, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Chill for at least one hour before serving.
