Greek Potato Salad
Report
The most refreshing potato salad! It's deliciously creamy, it has lot's of fresh herbs, and that bit of lemon gives it the perfect summery touch. Plus this dressing uses mostly Greek yogurt instead of all mayonnaise, so this is a healthier alternative to the classic potato salad.

Ingredients
- 2 1/2 lbs red potatoes scrubbed and rinsed clean, diced into 3/4-inch cubes

- Meanwhile place diced cucumber on a few layers of paper towels and wrap and press to remove some of the excess liquid.
- Transfer cucumber to a large mixing bowl, add in Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, parsley, dill, lemon juice, and garlic then season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir mixture.
