Potato Salad
Ingredients
3 lbs of Red Potatoes
2 Sweet Potatoes
2 Stalks of Celery
1 Small Vidalia Onion (chopped finely)
2 Chives
1/3 cup Fresh Chopped Herbs like Parsley
1/3 cup Mayonnaise (Use Vegannaise if you wish, or even Light Mayo)
1/3 cup Sour Cream (again, use low fat sour cream or greek yogurt, whatever is on sale or in your kitchen)
1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
1 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp Cayenne
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 Scoop of Whey Crisps
Directions
Wash and scrub potatoes. Peel red potatoes if you like. Place into a pot, fill with water (add salt), cover and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the potatoes are to a consistency of your liking (I like them well done). Drain water, chop red potatoes into 1 inch cubes. Chop sweet potatoes intro smaller cubes, think 1/4-1/2 inch. While water is coming to a boil, finely chop onion, celery, and chives. Add in remainder of ingredients. Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving (or longer, you can make this a day ahead.) Add more or less paprika, and cayenne, depending on your preferences!

100g red cabbage

Cut lettuce into long strips
Cut half of an avocado into cubes
Slice the cabbage pieces if too big into smaller ones
Toss everything into the bowl until it’s a decent homogeneous mixture
This is optional but i love the way it goes with the salad and is a decent low carb, high fiber, high protein option. Take the tortilla and cut it into squares, spray with some PAM butter spray, and sprinkle with paprika, and bake it for 2-3 minutes on each side on 375 or until ready.
Enjoy with a glass of sweetened sparkling white wine .
