Vegan Herby Potato Salad

I am a fan of all things potatoes, roasted, mashed, in soup, covered in buttery goodness, but this time of year, when my garden is full of herbs, I wanted something super herby, garlicky and light. This is where this vegan herby potato salad came from.  This is the inspiration that led me to create this vegan herby potato salad!  

The cashews, garlic and oil blended make a creamy coating, but the roughly chopped herbs give the salad some light and freshness. The best part of this recipe, in my opinion, is it takes less than 30 minutes to make with using pantry staples and only dirties two dishes, which means more time eating and less time cleaning!
