What would a BBQ or picnic be without potato salad? This salad is tossed with fresh herbs and a light, tangy mayonnaise rich in healthy omega-3 fats. Potatoes are a good source of complex carbohydrates. Eggs are a rich source of choline needed for healthy brain development in babies, and seeds give this salad an extra protein boost.

4 large potatoes
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons toasted sunflower and sesame seeds
2 boiled eggs, diced
1/4 cup (63 g/21/4 oz) creamy mayonnaise

11/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, crushed
1/4 cup (63 g/21/4 oz) natural or Greek yoghurt
Pinch sea salt

Peel and wash potatoes.
Cut into bite size pieces and steam until cooked through.

Transfer to a bowl and place in the fridge to cool.
Add shallots, mint, parsley, egg and seeds.

To make the mayonnaise whisk mustard, lemon juice, garlic, yoghurt and sea salt in a small bowl until well combined.
Slowly pour oil into mixture, whisking until mayonnaise thickens and looks creamy.
