Lightened Up Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad #SundaySupper

June 30, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 66 Comments

Hi Everyone,

This week on #SundaySupper we are making Summer BBQ recipes.  I love summer BBQ recipes, love them.  You serve me anything on a paper plate, some plastics utensils and I’m one happy camper.  Oh and the smell, nothing like the smell of hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken and steak grilling on a charcoal grill.  I love my gas grill, but nothing beats the smell of charcoal.   Last Saturday I went to Stinson Beach and at 9:30 in the morning people were already having their charcoal grills going and all I could smell were hot dogs.   I was craving them like crazy.  99% of the time I am a nice, non-demanding, understanding person, but after smelling hot dogs all day I sent a text to my Husband.  I said get the charcoal grill ready, I want hot dogs for dinner.  He probably just about fell over because I don’t even care for hot dogs, and he LOVES them, but I wanted one and in my text, I said “MAKE IT HAPPEN”.  Don’t mess with a girl and her food.  My Husband called me a little bit later and he said he cleaned the grill and seasoned the grates, all ready for hot dogs.  Now that’s a man after my own heart.  To boot he even went to the store and bought condiments to go with the dogs.  Wow!  I actually didn’t have hot dogs, but I had chicken dogs from Trader Joe’s.  I love them and they are only 60 calories each.  Talk about guilt-free!  I ate two and felt good about it.  But for today’s recipe I didn’t make hot dogs, or anything on the grill, but I did make something that will side perfectly with your grilled goodies and that is my Lightened Up Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad and yes there is bacon in it!

Lightened Up Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad

Honestly, I am not the biggest potato salad person, but my Husband is and I don’t mind having a little bit.  I think it’s because I am not a mayonnaise person.  But this salad actually tastes like a baked potato!  It’s creamy, chunky has little bits of bacon and cheese, all surrounded by sour cream and mayonnaise.  It was delicious!

Lightened Up Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad


Let’s talk mayonnaise a second.  As I said, I am not a mayonnaise person, I’m lucky if I consume a tablespoon a year of it, but being the calorie fanatic that I am, I made the biggest mistake ever, I bought fat free mayonnaise.  It’s low calories and no fat, why not!  I would feel better about feeding that to my Husband then the fatty stuff he eats.  Well, one of my Husbands favorite things is cucumbers and tomatoes, cut up and surrounding by a pool of mayonnaise.  Yuck!  I don’t eat it, I have balsamic vinegar on my veggies.  So I made it with fat free mayonnaise for him.  He ate a bite and said ugh, what is this.  I told him mayo, he said, uh uh, is that yogurt?  That’s his answer to everything he doesn’t like, I said it’s mayo.  He said taste it, I tasted it and it was horrible!!!  HORRRIBLE!!!  I felt so bad!  I ruined his favorite salad, plus I wasted the veggies.  I can’t even describe to you the taste.  It was just gross!  I will never, ever make that mistake again.  So in this salad, I smartened up and used real mayonnaise.  But to lightened it up I used fat free sour cream.  It worked like a charm.  A little mayo goes a long way in this salad.  So trust me, don’t get fat free mayo, nasty, nasty.  Now I can’t judge on the light mayo, since I never had that so you must tell me how that one is if you have tried it.

Lightened Up Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad

For the potatoes, I had half yukon gold and half red potatoes.  When I got my package from the CSA, I got a mix of potatoes, so the mix went into the salad. I’m not to picky when it comes to potatoes, but sweet ones are my favorite.  I chose not to peel the poatoes in this salad because I was really going for the baked potato taste.  If you don’t like the skin, by all means peel the potatoes.  Oh and speaking of potatoes, don’t eat the ones that are green or have green spots.  That is the toxin solanine, which can make you very sick.  A potato gets solanine because the potato is exposed to light.  The pigment Chlorophyll turns green warning you not to eat it.  Thank goodness for the sign.  One last thing about potatoes, don’t throw the water out that you boil the potatoes in.  Let the water cool and pour it in your garden.  The water is loaded with nutrients and your garden will love you for it, plus it’s good for the environment!  🙂

    So glad your husband likes potato salad, Jennifer because your readers might have been deprived of this tantalizing recipe…BTW Maybe you’d change your mind about mayo if you tried the Japanese kind. Truly delish!

    Thanks for the tip too on TJ’s chicken dogs. I’ll look for them next time =)

    Love that this is lightened up but still has bacon in it! Great tip to use the potato water in the garden. I sometimes think hot dogs look good and start to crave one, but then I eat it and realize I like the idea of them more than the actual hot dog.

    It’s okay to try the light stuff, at least if it’s Hellman’s/Best Foods. My husband is a mayo freak, and while he still prefers the stuff with all the fat, he is okay with the light. I promise you, he would not eat it if it didn’t taste right. When it comes to mayo or butter/butter substitutes, he has very sensitive taste buds.

    This potato salad recipe sounds very nice. I’ll have to save it in case I ever need to make potato salad (it’s something I really haven’t eaten for years).

    I am so with you – I realllly don’t enjoy mayo. Sometimes I can handle it if it is in aioli form…but only a little bit! I’ve had some good luck buying the olive oil mayo for a few recipes…the flavor is still there but I feel a bit better about using it if it’s needed!

Happy Thursday! I am a day ahead of myself this w Happy Thursday!  I am a day ahead of myself this week. I thought yesterday was Thursday and I was excited because I thought today was Friday. I knew what day of the week it was, but my brain didn’t get it. Does that ever happen to you?
🐶
I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?

Happy Wednesday! My bathroom refresh should be co Happy Wednesday!  My bathroom refresh should be completed, I think this weekend? That means I get to go shopping for some new pieces to add to the bathroom. I am on the search for is some new open shelves to go above the toilet. If you have any suggestions on where to get some, let me know.
❤️
I wasn’t going to, but I decided to do a small Valentines table setting. I couldn’t resist the small white plates with the little red heart in the middle that I got from @williamssonoma. It was the first thing I bought after my no home decor buying for 30 days.
❤️
I love the simplicity of the table. It’s a small space, so I do not like to go to overboard on the decor. I added a little gift of candy hearts to bring together the reds and of course to eat.
❤️
Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I clea Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I cleaned my kitchen sink area. It was filling up with daffodils and tulips and my husband said he feels like he’s in a greenhouse. I said they are bulbs, they won’t be there forever. Well they did poop out so I cleaned up my area to make more room for new plants.
🤣
You know when you take a photo and you realize something is in the wrong spot, so you fix it and take a photo again? Or maybe you see a crumb, a dog hair tumbleweed and you have to clean up and take a photo again. We’ll here’s my story.
😂
I took a photo of the kitchen sink area and I saw in the photo a smear mark on the dishwasher. So I cleaned the dishwasher. Then I took a photo again and I saw that smear mark again. So I scrubbed the dishwasher and ended up up cleaning all of my cabinets.
😂
I took the photo again and I saw that smear looking mark in my photo. What the heck? I examined the dishwasher and I’m thinking it’s so clean and smooth. I don’t get what that smear mark is. It was driving me crazy!!
🤣
Then it hit me. It was the reflection of the dog food dish in the dishwasher. Sigh.... All that scrubbing and I could have just moved the bowl. Well now I have a clean dishwasher and cabinets.
🤦‍♀️
Has this ever happened to you?

Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hope you had a nice weekend. I took  advantage of the sunshine and 64 degree weather we had. I did some therapeutic yard work and I planted Pansies, Stock and Ranunculus in the garden. It felt so nice to be outside and to see flowers.

This weekend I finally repotted my Coffee Plant and Dracaena plant. They had roots growing out of the pot. I have no idea how the Dracaena (plant on right) plant survived. The roots were so dry and it was in about a 3” container.  I looked up the plant and it can grow to 10’. Not the care I gave mine. That little plant is about a year old.
🌸
If your looking for a low light, easy to care for plant that takes neglect, get a Dracaena. I’m proof that it can take neglect.
🌸
Basic repotting plant tips
1. Get a pot about 2-4” larger in diameter then the pot your current plant is in. Make sure it has a drainage hole at the bottom.
2. Use indoor potting soil, preferably organic.
3. Carefully take plant out of current pot, check if the roots are root bound, if so, try to untangle a little bit. Just be gentle.
4. Place plant in new pot with fresh indoor potting soil
5. Give a good watering

Did you watch the Super Bowl? I wasn’t a fan of the game, but I enjoyed some of the commercials. The Cheetos one with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunas made me laugh. I didn’t care for the Doritos commercial with my man Matthew McConaughey.
🌸
Were there any commercials you liked?

It’s finally Friday! Woohoo! I always say to my It’s finally Friday!  Woohoo! I always say to myself, I’m going to sleep in, I never do. I get so excited of all the things I want to do, that I can’t sleep. This weekend I’m hoping to hit the garden store. I really want to plant some Iceland Poppies.
🌷
Since Spring is in my head, I created this cute Spring tiered tray. I got all of the gorgeous handcrafted pieces from my friend Brantley @thesassyoak. The workmanship is amazing. They are just happy, cheery pieces.
🌷
The love birds sign is my favorite. It reminds me of my two Blue Jays that frequent my yard. They are my favorite birds next to Woody of course.
🐦
How cute is that sweet little “BLOOM” banner. Eeeee, It makes me want to plant flowers so bad. Crossing fingers that I get too. You have no idea how I just love Spring!
🌷
To get these fabulous pieces and many more, be sure to check out The Sassy Oak. She has a beautiful Etsy shop.

Do you like gardening?
