Who would have thought that delicious, creamy potato salad could actually be good for your gut microbiome. The reason why potato salad can be good for you is because you are cooling the potato before you eat it. By cooling the potatoes you are creating something called resistance starch and that helps feed your gut microbiome. Cool right?

The reason why this baby is so much better for you than regular potato salad is because I am using raw fermented pickles by Bubbies which also feed your gut microbiome, and I am not using a traditional mayonnaise base for my dressing. Most commercial mayonnaises contain terrible inflammatory oils that just destroy the health benefits of potato salad.

If you make your own mayonnaise with good quality organic cold pressed olive oil or avocado oil, then go for it. I hope you enjoy this healthy version, it will keep in the refrigerator up to a week.
