This refreshing Greek Yogurt Potato Salad with Cucumbers is a healthy twist on a classic favorite, combining creamy yogurt dressing with crisp cucumbers and tender potatoes for a light and flavorful side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced

  4. Add the cooled potatoes, sliced cucumbers, fresh dill, and scallions to the dressing. Gently toss to combine.
  5. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  6. Chill the potato salad in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

For extra crunch and flavor, try adding some chopped celery or toasted walnuts before serving.
