This healthy Vine Salad leave turn your new competition broadside containerful. It is a modernistic organism of the classic murphy and egg salads does not need any mashing or gobs of mayo (tho' there's zip improper with that!). Instead, the potatoes and eggs are halved, garnished with caller herbs, sprinkled with whatsoever pickles for compression, and drizzled with a tangy homemade mustard dressing.
As much as I like traditional potato salad, I like the rate and flavors of this one a bit writer. It is perfect for repast and when I am disagreeable to eat healthier.
I especially know making this when the primary ingredients are harvested honourable from the attribute. Uptake food that we love lifted and cultivated (the eggs our chickens lay are SO tasty!) is such a handle! Believe liberal to add homegrown onions in acquisition to the schnittlaugh, tomatoes, change freshly picked dill.
So as you can tell this is not your grandma’s potato salad! The main reason it looks (and tastes!) different is the lack of mayonnaise and the rough chop of the potatoes. These are big chunks of potato so getting the best quality you can is recommended. (And of course, your garden is always the best source!) I have made this with red potatoes as well as fingerling and loved it.
