Instructions:

  1. Cook Potatoes: Begin by cooking the potatoes in boiling water until they are fork-tender. This usually takes about 20 minutes, depending on the size of your potatoes. Once cooked, drain them and let them cool slightly.

  2. Chill Potatoes: For the best results, transfer the cooked potatoes to the refrigerator and chill them for a few hours or overnight. This step helps in making the potatoes easier to handle and enhances the texture of the salad.

  3. Prepare Potatoes: After chilling, peel the skin from the potatoes if desired, or leave them on for added texture and nutrients. Cut the potatoes into approximately 1-inch chunks and set them aside.

  4. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the light mayonnaise, vinegar, parsley flakes, salt, black pepper, and bacon bits. Stir well until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated and create a creamy dressing.

  5. Combine Potatoes: Gently add the chilled potato chunks to the bowl of dressing. Using a spatula or large spoon, carefully fold the potatoes into the dressing until they are evenly coated. Be gentle to avoid mashing the potatoes.

  6. Chill and Serve: Once the potatoes are coated with the dressing, cover the bowl and return it to the refrigerator until you are ready to serve. Chilling allows the flavors to meld together, enhancing the taste of the salad. Serve chilled and enjoy this delightful Simply Lite Potato Salad with your favorite main dishes or as a standalone treat!

This recipe is perfect for potlucks, picnics, or any occasion where you need a delicious and satisfying side dish. With its light and flavorful dressing, it’s sure to be a hit with family and friends alike!
