high protein potato salad


Well, since I have no more studying to do, I have been filling a lot of my free time with more training. We all know what that means: more eating. Protein is especially important when trying to increase muscle mass. This salad is a twist on an old summer standard, as it delivers a lot of the protein that regular potato salad may lack. Also a great way to use the extra baked potatoes form last weekend's BBQ. 

3 tbsp whole grain dijon mustard 
3 tbsp vegan mayo
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp red wine vinegar
a few twists ground black pepper
2 baked potatoes, diced
7 scallions, thinly sliced
1/2 lb green beans, cut into inch pieces and flash boiled (3 minutes, then douse in cold water)
1 cup white kidney beans (cooked)
fresh dill to taste

mix together mustard, mayo, salt, vinegar and pepper. add other ingredients and stir. garnish with dill.
