³⁄₄ cup onion, minced
¹⁄₃ cup apple cider vinegar
¹⁄₄ cup sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
8 ounces chavrie goat cheese

directions

Place the potatoes in a medium-size pot and cover them with enough water to extend 2 inches above the surface of the potatoes. Salt the water and bring to boil over medium-high heat. Continue cooking until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and dice into 1/2-inch pieces.
Set aside in a warm place.
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once crisp, place on a paper towel-lined plate
Pour off the rendered fat, reserving 1/4 cup in the pan.
Turn the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook until translucent about 4 to 5 minutes.
Whisk in the vinegar, sugar, mustard, and salt and stir until thick and bubbly. Add the diced, cooked potatoes and toss to coat.
Top with crumbled Chavrie® Goat Log, bacon and garnish with the chives.
Serve warm.

GREAT! I made it just as she written except for no bacon grease (vegetarian in the house) but added crumbled bacon at the end. VERY very good. Thanks for posting!

What a fantastic dish! I couldn't find the goat cheese, but it was still scrumptious without. My finicky son who "doesn't like potato salad" ate enough to fill a cereal bowl! Thanks for sharing, we'll add this delicious dish to our summer repertoire.

Absolutely delicious and very, very easy to make! I left out the bacon & it still came out great! I have a BBQ this weekend, and I will be, without a doubt, bringing this along.
