Ingredients
- 500 grams potatoes
- 300 grams carrots
- 100 grams mayonnaise
- 50 grams Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Instructions
Wash and peel the potatoes and carrots. Chop the potatoes into bite-sized cubes and slice the carrots into thin rounds.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and carrots, and cook for 10-15 minutes until they are fork-tender but not mushy.
Drain the potatoes and carrots and set them aside to cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and slice the green onions thinly.
Gently fold the cooled potatoes and carrots into the dressing, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated.
Add the chopped parsley and green onions to the salad, reserving some for garnish, and mix gently to combine.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with the reserved parsley and green onions.
Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy your Potato Carrot Salad!
