LIGHT AND EASY GREEK POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place red potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain and chill in freezer until cold, about 30 minutes.
• Slice potatoes and place into a large salad bowl; toss potatoes with green onion. Whisk olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, oregano, sugar, rosemary, and red pepper in a bowl. Pour the dressing over the potatoes and toss. Serve immediately or chill until serving time.

GREEK POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the (hot) potatoes of any liquid and cut into nice big chunks.
• Add all the ingredients, except parsley and/or cilantro and stir, carefully, to incorporate the oil into the potato (most of the oil will be absorbed, but some may reappear if the salad sits too long- just give it another stir).
• Many of the potato chunks will start to puree and others will stay in nice big pieces- texturally you're going from creamy to chunky in ever bite. When the salad has cooled a bit, add the parsley and/or cilantro. I like this warm or at room temperature - never cold.
• If it's not all gone by the end of the day, it can be used as the base for a yummy (garlicky) soup.

Steps:

• Cut the onion into thin slices, then cut the slices in half.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them into large bite-sized chunks of equal size. Rinse well.
• Add the potatoes to a pot of cold water, enough to cover them by 1 1/2 inches. Bring the water to a boil and boil the potatoes over medium-high heat for about 15 minutes.
• Test the potatoes for doneness after 10 minutes. They should pierce easily with a fork when they're ready. If they're not quite there yet, keep checking in 1-minute increments.
• Remove the potatoes from the heat as soon as they're done and drain them. Overcooking will turn them to mush when you prepare the salad.
• Place the potatoes in a serving bowl or dish. Add the onions and toss together.

Steps:

• Set a large pot of water over high heat. Add the potatoes. Bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and rinse with cool water; set aside to cool.
• While the potatoes are cooking, chop the other veggies and make the sauce.
• To make the sauce, add all sauce ingredients to a medium bowl and mix thoroughly. Set aside. If you're not making the salad right away, refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to use.
• Assemble the salad. Once the potatoes are cool enough to chop, cut into 3/4-inch chunks and add to a large salad bowl. Add the onion, cucumber, tomatoes, and olives. Add the sauce and toss gently until all of the veggies are coated. Sprinkle feta on top, if using. Serve.
• May be made up to 24 hours ahead and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve. After it sits for a bit, the salad may get a little watery at the bottom thanks to the cucumbers, but just give it a stir and you're good to go.
