Instructions

Preheat and Prepare Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Boil the baby potatoes in salted water for 12–15 minutes until they are fork-tender but still hold their shape.
Smash Potatoes: Drain the potatoes and gently smash each one with the bottom of a glass or a potato masher, being careful not to break them apart completely.
Season and Roast: Arrange the smashed potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper evenly over them. Roast in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes until the potatoes are golden and crispy on the edges.
Prepare Dressing: While the potatoes roast, mix together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, chopped dill, parsley, diced celery, chopped dill pickles, and sliced green onions in a large bowl until well combined.
Toss and Garnish: When the potatoes are done roasting, remove them from the oven and toss them gently with the prepared dressing while still warm. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired before serving.

Notes

Serve the potato salad warm or chilled based on your preference.
For extra flavor, sprinkle crispy cooked bacon over the salad just before serving.
This salad keeps well refrigerated for up to 2 days but is best enjoyed fresh.
Adjust seasoning and herbs according to taste for more brightness or spice.
