French Potato Salad

"Great change from the old standby, and it doesn't encourage salmonella quite as quickly at a picnic! My husband begs for this as soon as the fresh ingredients are available! The tangy dressing is so good!"

  1. Barb, this was so delicious! The measurments for the oil and vinegar are missing, so I used 1/4c and 1/2 c. I also used fresh basil and Italian parsley. At first I thought there was going to be way too much dressing, but the potatoes slurp it right up! This was easy to prepare, and the flavor is incredible. Thanks for posting this mayo-free alternative!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in a small town in far southwestern North Dakota and teach at the local school. My husband is a teacher, coach & hunter. Recipes in my repetoire tend to be down-home, and not requiring exotic ingredients, as we are quite isolated from major grocery stores. We have many excellent cooks in this area, though, and exchange recipes frequently. I am a grandma, and also have two Labradors, one just a 10 week old pup. Our dogs are always house dogs as well as hunting companions, so I am busy finding things for him to chew instead of my shoes. We are adjacent to the beautiful North Dakota Badlands and spend alot of time outdoors, hunting, running our dogs and just exploring.
