Potato salad is a universal comfort food that fits perfectly on any dinner table. This version uses whole-grain Dijon mustard and vegan mayonnaise to create a rich, tangy dressing. Boiling the potatoes in savory broth adds a deep layer of flavor before they are quickly chilled and mixed. You can serve this dish cold for a classic picnic side or mix it up warm for a cozy weeknight addition. It pairs beautifully with hearty mains and simple roasted vegetables.
