I’m going to be honest right now and was dubious about using leftover vegan roasted potatoes to make this salad. I had never used leftover roast potatoes before (as they are usually scoffed all up!) – but I was keen to try this recipe.

I feel this vegan warm potato salad would be the perfect dish or side, the following day after a big feast where roasties are usually served. Think a Monday after a Sunday roast. The day after thanksgiving. Or St. Stephens Day following Christmas feast. (Note we call it St. Stephens Day in Ireland – I’m fully aware it is called Boxing Day in the UK!).

Garlicky roasted potato salad is a wonderful way to reduce food waste – and honestly my mind was blown when I made it.

How have I never used roasted potatoes in a vegan potato salad before?!

Creamy Vegan Dressing

This roasted vegan dill potato salad is coated in a delicious creamy dressing. The delicious blend of vegan mayonnaise, dijon mustard, garlic powder, lemon juice and white wine vinegar makes the perfect dressing!

The fresh dill and fresh parsley in this roasted vegan potato salad really just makes it sing!

Can I Reheat Roasted Potatoes?

Yes! If you wait until the potatoes have cooked completely and then store them in an airtight container in the fridge, you can totally reheat them the next day.

I actually reheated mine in the air fryer, on a medium heat fro approximately 10 minutes.

If reheating in the oven, I suggest laying them on a baking tray, covering with foil and heat for approximately 15 minutes. Then remove the foil for a further 5-10 minutes to regain that original crunch.
