Avocado Potato Salad

Avocado Potato Salad

This is an unusual twist on an old favorite.  I had some of my Avocado Salad Dressing on hand and was making a potato salad.  I used it instead of the normal dressing.   It was good!  One caveat:  It won't keep, so only mix up small batches.

Avocado Potato Salad

In a medium sized bowl, combine:

1/4 cup Avocado Salad Dressing
1/4 teaspoon celery seed

Add:

2 cups diced potatoes
1 stalks celery, diced
1/4 - 16 ounce black olives, drained and sliced (about 1/3 cup)
1 hard cooked egg, cut up

Mix all of the ingredients together.

Garnish with:

1/4 teaspoon dill weed

Serve immediately.  Enjoy!

There is a recipe floating around Facebook for an avocado salad dressing that looks really good.  However, most of the ingredients are on the "no" list for interstitial cystitis!  I had an avocado at home yesterday, so I decided to make my own version of it.  I think it turned out very well.  My daughter said it tastes like a cross between Ranch dressing and guacamole.

  

Non-Acidic Avocado Salad Dressing

In a blender container, place

1 egg
1 tablespoon pear juice
2 teaspoons Adobo seasoning
1/2 teaspoon dill weed

Remove the center from the cover of the blender, place it on the blender, and begin blending.  

Pour slowly, in a small stream

1/2 cup olive oil

Stop the blender and add 

1 whole avocado, peeled and cut up into chunks
3 tablespoons water.

Store with the pit in the dressing to keep it from turning dark.  Use within a week as a dressing or dip.  Add more water if a thinner dressing is desired.
