Vegan Purple Potato Salad Recipe

Picture of Vegan Purple Potato Salad

With summer here, I thought today’s recipe, Vegan Purple Potato Salad would be perfect to share with all of your friends and family. You can serve it hot or room temperature as the perfect side-dish at any gathering. This dish satisfies on many levels but two of my favorites ways are comfort and nutrients!

When I created this dish, I wanted to provide something filling and nourishing that could also hold up as great food to pack for picnics and serve as fridge leftovers (I know you’d probably rather be outside and cooking less when the weather is awesome outside). This simple recipe is made with only a few ingredients but packs a lot of flavor by using certain key whole foods.

Used to eating your typical white or yellow flesh potatoes? Well move on over and check out these babies…

Purple Potatoes

Did you know there are several types of the purple potatoes, including— Purple Majesty, Purple Viking and Purple Peruvian varieties? Native to South America, purple potatoes of course get their name from their amazingly beautiful deep purple skin and flesh. These potatoes taste very similar to the standard white-flesh potato, with a slightly nutty flavor and a creamier texture— making it ideal for doing pretty much anything that you might do with a standard potato. 🙂 They feel like little jewels to me!

There is a rule of thumb with vegetables (and fruits): the deeper and richer the color, the more nutritious.

There’s no exception to this rule when it comes to the purple potato. It’s rich in the antioxidant anthocyanin, which is a characteristic of deeply colored purple or blue produce, such as blueberries and pomegranates. Anthocyanin is great for boosting immunity and helping to reduce inflammation.

If you are a Beauty Detox follower, you know inflammation* goes beyond your typical sprained ankle. It can also be systemic, affecting your organs and internal structures. As you know, this is a topic I discuss on the podcast and here on the blog often, in hopes of assisting all of us in keeping aging inflammation down as much as possible, including in our diet!

*Note: If you want to know which culprits are responsible for causing inflammation and how to combat them— go here!

Because we want all the nutrients we can get, try keeping the skin on when cooking. Not only will this step help to seal in the nutrients and moisture, but will provide you with lots of fiber, vitamins and minerals. The skin of the purple potato is rich in vitamin C, containing polyphenols and potassium, making this veggie a great choice.

Besides all of those great benefits, this salad is loaded with insulin regulation and weight management from the avocado, the anti-inflammatory benefits from the red onion and loads of taste with the fresh lemon and dill.

Is your mouth watering yet? What are you waiting for…let’s get prepping! 😉

    My husband and LOVED this recipe. We did not have mustard or dill on hand, but it did not matter. I never would have thought to combine purple potatoes and avocado. I will never be able to eat regular potato salad again. Thank you!

    What is a good alternative to purple potatoes? In Sydney they are impossible to find and trying to buy online the waiting time for most places say around August 2018 for availability which is almost a year from now. In most shops they sell what they call purple sweet potatoes but they are purely white on the inside and turn black immediately after cutting open.

      You can use any potato really…it’s just good to have a variety of veggies in your routine, so whenever they come around, grab them up! 😉
