Salmon With Potato Salad
This salmon potato salad only needs a few ingredients:
- mini potatoes

Salmon is the seafood of choice in our family. Now that grilling season is here, cedar-planked salmon will be happening throughout the summer. Homemade salmon burgers are always a hit too. I love using dill out of my garden herb box too.

Suggestions/Recipe Tips
Mini potatoes are great to work with. You can also regular-sized potatoes. Just cut them up before cooking. No need to peel. Bake the potatoes wrapped in foil in the oven or on the grill.
Fresh dill is best for this recipe. You can use dried, but much less is needed. Green onion can be replaced with chives.
Smoked salmon pairs perfectly with potatoes. If you are not a fan of smoked salmon, you can add some grilled salmon instead. Not a salmon lover? Try adding shrimp or chicken.
Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat easily wrapped in foil in a moderate oven for about 20-30 minutes.

Your Warm Potato Salad with Salmon was a delightful change from my usual dinners. It was a hit with my family, and we’ll definitely be making this again soon!

You can never go wrong with pairing salmon and potatoes for dinner.
Lynn | The Road to Honey
Oh garsh Gloria!!! Don’t even get me started on the number of cookbooks I have. . .but it is way too many and I barely have space for them in my itty bitty apartment. Fortunately we will be closing on our new house soon. . .and I have to admit that I am very much so looking forward to finding a tucked away space to keep them all in (as opposed to my night stand, coffee table. . .and wherever else there is open space).
As for this potatoes and salmon. . .it looks so lovely. My hubby is a big fish and chips (and salmon fan too) fan so I am certain this would be right up his alley.

This really is potato salad on a higher level. As for the cookbook, the collection is a work of love…and never ending.
Amanda
This is warm enough to be comforting, but with all the dill, it is very fresh tasting at the same time. Salmon is the perfect counterpart with it’s light, smoky flavor. I love the textures in this salad.
Homemade & Yummy
This is a keeper that can be used all year long.

Yum – that’s my kinda food – thanks #recipeoftheweek

Homemade & Yummy
It a magical pairing for sure.
Dene' V. Alexander
Oh. My. Goodness. I love the idea of this potato salad. I usually don’t care for it because of the mustard and mayo (don’t like condiments), but this I would try AND THE ADDITION OF THE SALMON…WINNER!!!!!
Homemade & Yummy
This really is on a whole other level for sure.
Derek | Dad With A Pan
Love the use of dill, its so good on potato salads! I don’t know if i could hang with the salmon, but I know my wife would love it so i’ll take one for the team!
Homemade & Yummy
Well the potatoes are great on their own too.
Marisa Franca @ All Our Way
We love smoked salmon and I hesitate to say but I am not a fan of potato salad. Now, the potato salad I’m referring to is the one full of mayo and a sweet aftertaste. Your potato salad looks fabulous!! I really think I could dig into that and not stop until it is gone. I not only want to thank you for the recipe but for introducing me to Dennis The Prescott. What gorgeous photos and recipes. I signed up for his posts.
Homemade & Yummy
This salad is on a whole new level. Dennis is awesome…and his book is fantastic.

Potatoes, salmon, and dill fit my Scandinavian heritage as well – they’re such a wonderful combination! But this is a lovely twist on it! I really like the idea of the salad.

Yes I can see how that would work for you. We love this salad.
