Makes:   4 servings 

This potato salad uses peas, onions, and celery for a bright crunch and a base that includes plain yogurt for a light, zesty flavor.

Ingredients

  • 3 potatoes (medium)
  • 1 cup celery (chopped)
  • 1⁄2 cup onion (minced)
  • 1 cup peas (frozen)
  • 3 teaspoons mustard (prepared)
  • 1⁄2 cup mayonnaise, low-fat
  • 1⁄2 cup yogurt, non-fat plain

  •   lettuce and tomato (Garnish, optional)

Directions

  1. Wash potatoes, leave skin on and cut in bite-size chunks.
