Warm Mustard Seed Potato Salad

This warm potato salad is made with a mustard seed dressing, cornichons, caraway seeds and fresh baby arugula for a light and healthy way to serve up our favorite root vegetable, perfect for the new year. This is the time of the year we could all use something lighter, but because of the chill and cold I find myself seeking heartier meals.

Potatoes are my secret weapon. You see on their own, they are actually loaded with nutrients and low in calories, and very filling! The problem is we love to load them up with butter and bacon and cheese. Which I admit is hard to resist sometimes – but for the sake of my heart health, I’m trying to cut back.

I partnered with The US Potato Board to create a fresh, light and healthy potato recipe for the new year. To me, this Warm Potato Salad with Mustard Seed dressing fits the bill, while not compromising on flavor. Cornichons (tiny little pickles) give it a texture and tang, and toasted caraway seeds give it a unique and earthy twist. Fresh baby arugula adds extra nutrients and antioxidants and of course a delicious peppery bite. The flavors marry surprisingly well.



Serve with this with a piece of roasted salmon for a light and healthy dinner, or toss in chopped chicken breast for a low-calorie, yet filling lunch.
