Potato and Herb Salad


Sunny days like today make me long for summer. We're getting there soon, which means its time to think about yummy Potato and Herb Salad. This unique potato salad recipe is light and flavorful. Fresh herbs from your garden can be used (avoid the grocery store if you can!)

Ingredients:

1/4 c. light mayonnaise
1/4 c. light sour cream
2 T. Parmesan cheese (grated)
1 T. lemon juice
1/4 t. salt
1/8 t. ground peppercorns

4 c. cubed gold potatoes
1/2 c. chopped celery
1/3 c. chopped parsley
1/4 c. chopped chives
1/4 c. green peas

Combine the first 6 ingredients in a medium sized bowl. This will be the dressing for your potato salad.

Place potatoes in a large saucepan or pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Drain and allow to cool - about 1/2 hour.

Combine fresh herbs and vegetables above with the dressing, combine with potatoes and toss well.

Makes 5 servings about 1 cup each. We find that we're often doubling this recipe because its so tasty and is a great potluck or BBQ side dish.
