Greek Potato Salad
Overview
This is so mediterranean. The Greeks, Italians, Spanish, and French don't use mayonnaise in their potato salads. This recipe calls for olive oil and lemon (this is also the way they make their tuna salad) as the dressing. Light and clean flavors, this is a lovely chilled summer dish, or you can even serve it warm in winter. Also, Bella Sun Luci sun dried tomatoes pair really well with potatoes! Buon appetite!
