Tater Tot Pickle Salad

Recipe Intro From alexawhatsfordinner

This Pickled Potato Salad takes a fun and easy approach by using crispy tater tots instead of traditional boiled potatoes. This recipe gets its creamy, tangy flavor from Forager Project Dairy-Free Cashewmilk Yogurt, giving the dish a delicious plant-based twist. Prefer a more classic take? Swap the tater tots for smashed potatoes—either way, the bold, pickle-forward flavors shine. Perfect for barbecues, picnics, or weeknight dinners!
