Potato salad is one of my favorites; I could make a meal of it. This recipe is as delicious as the salad is beautiful. Fresh garden vegetables, dill, crumbled goat cheese, and a light, no-mayonnaise dressing will steal the show.

The Recipe

Spring Garden Potato Salad

  • 8 large russet potatoes, scrubbed
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 1 bunch scallions, green tops only, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small cucumber, seeded and thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh dill weed
  • 8 oz. goat cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 6 TBS seasoned rice vinegar
  • salt & pepper to taste

How to Make Potato Salad

  1. Boil or steam potatoes until just fork tender. Peel if desired; cut into bite-sized cubes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetables, dill, and cheese. Mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil and vinegar until emulsified.
  4. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and lightly toss.
  5. Add salt & pepper to taste.
