Low Fodmap Potato Salad With a Creamy Yogurt Vinaigrette

July 15, 2022 by Amber

low fodmap potato salad this post

This simple low fodmap potato salad with dill and eggs is perfect for anyone on the low fodmap diet for IBS. The easy potato salad is tossed in a creamy yogurt dressing with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, whole grain mustard, and maple syrup that is super yummy!

The potato salad is also perfect for your next BBQ, as it is a great summer salad that complements all sorts of BBQ food. 

The low fodmap potato salad recipe serves 4-6 as a side dish. The fresh dill in the potato salad is an excellent herb for gut health and to helps reduce bloating. Not to mention it makes the potato salad super flavourful. 

​According to Monash University, potatoes are low fodmap in serving sizes up to 500 grams, so you don’t have to worry about staying in a low fodmap serving size when eating potatoes. 

Ingredients for the low fodmap potato salad:

  • 4 cups potatoes (choose low FODMAP varieties like red potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes)
  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ cup fresh dill, chopped

Potato Salad Dressing Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup 
  • 2 tablespoons plain yogurt 

How to make the low fodmap potato salad:

  1. Start by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into bite-sized cubes. Place the potato cubes in a large pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, approximately 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to overcook them, as you want the potatoes to hold their shape in the salad.
  2. While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the hard-boiled eggs. Place the eggs in a separate pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil and let the eggs cook for about 10 minutes. Once cooked, drain the hot water and place the eggs in a bowl of cold water to cool down. Once cooled, peel the eggs and chop them into small pieces.
  3. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and yogurt until well combined. Set aside as this will be the dressing for your potato salad.
  4. Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool for a few minutes. Transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped hard-boiled eggs and fresh dill to the bowl.
  5. Pour the prepared dressing over the potatoes, eggs, and dill. Gently toss everything together until the potatoes and eggs are evenly coated with the dressing.
  6. Cover the bowl with a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
  7. Before serving, give the potato salad a quick stir and taste for seasoning. You can adjust the salt and pepper if needed.
  8. Serve chilled, and enjoy your low FODMAP potato salad as a side dish or a light meal.

​Serving tips and substitutions

I made this potato salad that is low fodmap without green onions as the dill provided enough flavor. Green onion is still a great low fodmap addition, as the green tips can be added to this salad for extra flavor if you like.

Dijon mustard is another excellent addition to the low fodmap salad dressing if you prefer a little more spice in your low fodmap potato salad. 

Enjoy this low fodmap potato salad as a classic side dish to accompany low fodmap meals such as salmon and parmesan roasted green beans. Such a delicious low-fodmap dinner meal! 

Benefits of this potato salad with fresh dill and eggs

Potatoes are a low fodmap root vegetable that, when cooked and cooled, contains ample amounts of resistant starches that are beneficial for gut health and provide satiety with fewer calories.

While many people with IBS and SIBO can tolerate potatoes, they were one of my trigger foods and would cause acid reflux, one of my primary SIBO symptoms. The resistant starches in potatoes were causing acid reflux due to an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine.

Identifying the resistant starches in potatoes is how I pinpointed SIBO as the cause of my acid reflux. Now that I have overcome SIBO, I can enjoy potatoes without experiencing acid reflux.

Eggs are an excellent source of extra protein and fat to balance the carbohydrates in the potato. They are also an excellent source of choline required by the PEMT gene. A well-functioning PEMT gene is crucial for preventing SIBO.

Dill is a fresh-tasting culinary herb with anti-bloat properties. Anytime I see dill at the farmers market, I buy some to put into my salads, such as this anti-bloat salad.

Culinary herbs such as dill also inhibit the growth of pathogenic and opportunistic bacteria while feeding the beneficial gut bacteria. For this reason, I love cooking and flavoring food with fresh herbs such as dill.

Enjoy this simple yet tasty low fodmap potato salad with fresh dill as a side dish that goes well with many low fodmap dinner meals, such as BBQ meat or this maple mustard salmon with roasted green beans!
