Note

For best results, use waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, which hold their shape better after boiling.

This salad can be customized with additional vegetables such as cucumbers, bell peppers, onions, or herbs like parsley and dill.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors meld together nicely overnight.

To add more protein, consider adding chickpeas, white beans, or a light vinaigrette dressing.
