Creamy Avocado & Potato Salad

Another way to have your salad is a no-mayo potato salad. You just need a couple of ingredients and voila! A perfect afternoon snack or a starter for your dinner.

If you feel like adding some protein, you can add nuts such as pine nuts, cashews, and even walnuts. A fried silken tofu will make this dish better too. But if you are a bacon lover, crispy bacon bits would also be a fit for this light and herbaceous potato salad.
