Ingredients

    Potato, Yukon Gold, 4 medium (about 600 grams or 1.3 lbs)
    Mayonnaise, Hellman's Light, 4 tbsp
    Celery, raw, .5 cup, diced
    Pepper, black, 5 dash
    Salt, 5 dash


Directions

Scrub 4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes (no need to remove the thin skin) and cut them in half so they're about the same size. Drop into cold water and bring to a boil.

While potatoes are cooking, chop up a couple of stalks of celery to yield approximately 1/2 cup of diced celery. Set aside.

Boil potatoes until fork-tender, about 20 minutes, then drain and cool. At this point you may want to refrigerate the potatoes for about an hour; if you add the mayonnaise when they're too warm, it will just melt. Cut potatoes into rough cubes.

In a large bowl, toss together the cooled and cubed potatoes, 4 tablespoons reduced fat mayonnaise, the chopped celery, and salt and pepper to taste. You can even top off with some spicy paprika for an extra kick.


Each serving is about 1 cup, this recipe makes 4 servings.
