My older daughters and I have been making creamy new potatoes for nearly two decades. When we first started making the dish, the recipe was entirely vegan. We used Follow Your Heart Veganaise and a plant-based butter substitute.
If you are vegan, you could certainly swap out those two ingredients and it will be absolutely delicious.
Since I am no longer vegan, I use grass-fed butter. Now I use my favorite avocado oil mayo that I buy at Costco. These delicious creamy new potatoes pair well with my Mom’s Kraut Burgers.
Red-skinned potatoes
We’ve always used small red skin potatoes in this recipe and I don’t recommend using large potatoes. Leave the peeling on, it is full of nutrition and adds texture and taste.
Red potatoes are particularly healthy because of the thin, nutrient-filled skins, which are loaded with fiber, B vitamins, iron, and potassium. Half of the fiber of a potato comes from the skin. On red potatoes, in particular, the skin is already super thin, so it doesn’t detract from the taste or texture

Nutrition
Hope you’ll give this recipe a try. To be honest, I put it on my website so I wouldn’t have to search for the paper recipe anymore. This year, 2020, I have been decluttering (probably along with the rest of the world) and I decided to eliminate all of my handwritten recipes.
This is one we still love and hence its appearance here.
