This vegan potato sauerkraut casserole is a warm, cozy and filling dish that you will love to feed your family and friends.

I’ve recently been eating a lot of potatoes. I mean, A LOT!

Because I follow Dr. McDougall and his starch-based way of eating, I became aware of what he and his wife refer to as “Mary’s Mini.” It is a 10 day re-set that you do by eating only one starch for 10 days. Every meal is that starch with a side of non-starchy veggies. It is intended to be boring, so all the tasty sauces that we know and love are discouraged. Condiments and seasonings are okay.

You choose which starch you want to eat and stick with that the entire 10 days. Because I LOVE potatoes, I chose them and thought I’d never get tired of potatoes.

Vegan Oil-Free German Potato Salad

August 17, 2018 by Trish Hall 6 Comments

This vegan oil-free German potato salad is a light and tangy potato salad that is tasty as a side dish or a meal. It’s great to share at potlucks!

I have to start by saying that I have never been much of a fan of potato salad. Especially not the kind with mayonnaise.

My grandma used to make her potato salad with more of a vinegar type dressing and I could eat that. Didn’t love it…but I could eat it.

Over the years I’ve had some potato salads that people said were made the German way…and I thought they were pretty good. They had a vinegar dressing, but dang! It’s made with bacon AND the grease that cooks out of the bacon. My arteries are slamming shut just thinking about it. So I started messing around and came up with something with a similar taste, but without the fat and bacon. Using smoked paprika gives a hint of that smokey bacon-y flavor. You could also add some of your favorite vegan bacon. I make mine with tempeh or mushrooms. Try it!

And I have to say…I really like this potato salad.
