This Greek potato salad combines roasted russet potatoes with crisp cucumber, ripe tomatoes, and Kalamata olives, bound together in a creamy herb-infused dressing made from Greek yogurt and mayonnaise. It's a lighter, fresher take on traditional potato salad that works as both a side dish and light main.

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, toss the cubed potatoes with avocado oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through and golden brown.
Once roasted, let the potatoes cool slightly, then transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Add the chopped cucumber, red onion, tomato, and Kalamata olives to the bowl with the potatoes.
Add the Greek yogurt and mayonnaise to the bowl.
Season with dried thyme, dried oregano, dried dill, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Squeeze in the lemon juice and add the optional fresh mint.
Gently toss everything together until all ingredients are well combined and coated in the dressing.
Serve immediately or chill before serving.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The salad is best served chilled; reheat is not recommended.
Yes, prepare up to 4 hours ahead. Toss potatoes with dressing just before serving to prevent them from becoming mushy.
Let roasted potatoes cool to room temperature before mixing with dressing. Warm potatoes absorb dressing better but will be softer.
Use sour cream (1:1) or all mayonnaise, though the yogurt adds tanginess and reduces calories.
Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes hold their shape well when roasted. Waxy potatoes are preferable to floury varieties for potato salads.
Chop cucumber and tomatoes just before serving, and drain excess liquid. Don't over-chop vegetables.
