How often do you spend a summer day running errands, at the beach or spending time outdoors to end up super hot and exhausted? For us, this is almost a daily event, and my Fearless Dining family was practically begging me for some homemade potato salad. I wanted to develop the perfect recipe that meets all of our needs!

What to serve with potato salad:

Here are a few ideas to serve with this fantastic loaded baked potato salad:

• Gluten Free German Schnitzel
• Dijon Mustard Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Can this salad be made ahead?

Of course! If you are planning a large gathering or party, then this gluten free potato salad is a must! Not only because it tastes fantastic, but you can make it in advance to save yourself the headache the day of. As long as you keep it in a covered airtight container in the refrigerator it will last 3-4 days. 

Do I need to peel skin for potato salad?

The beauty of this gluten free potato salad is that it’s completely up to you if the skin is peeled or not. We love the skin because that is where are the tasty nutrients are. You get vitamin B6, fiber, iron, and vitamin C in that precious skin! So, leave it on or take it off depending on your preferences. 

How do you know if potato salad goes bad?

If you make the potato salad ahead of time or are munching on leftovers, you are going to want to know when it’s bad, so you don't’ risk becoming ill.

First, it’s important to know that no potato salad should ever sit out longer than 2 hours because bacteria will grow rather quickly. Once the loaded baked potato salad starts going bad, you will notice it may become extra water, have an unpleasant odor, or have mold. If you notice any of these issues, toss it!

Optional tips:

If you make this loaded baked potato salad you will know it’s awesome just the way it’s written. Here are a few ideas to try out when you are looking for a change:

• Ranch Dressing - Add some ranch dressing to the sauce for a summery flavor.
• Eggs - Dice up a few eggs and toss them into the gluten free potato salad. So good!
• Celery - Cut up a few pieces of celery to get some added crunch.
• Turmeric - Sprinkle in a little bit of turmeric to the mixture. It adds a subtle flavor and it nutrient-rich. 

Instructions:

Add all of the ingredients to a bowl. (Don't let your son try to pick the bacon out!)

Mix up the potato salad. Serve or pack in a container and refrigerate.
