TRICOLOR POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• In 5-quart stockpot or Dutch oven, place potatoes and water. Cover and heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer covered 9 to 11 minutes or until potatoes are tender when pierced with paring knife. Drain potatoes; cool about 10 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper with whisk until combined. Stir in onions, parsley and thyme.
• Cut potatoes in quarters, and add to vinaigrette in bowl; toss to coat. Spread arugula on large platter. Spoon potato mixture over arugula. Serve warm.

SMASHED TRI-COLOR POTATOES

Steps:

• Combine the potatoes, garlic and bay leaves in a large pot and cover with cold water by about an inch. Add some salt, then cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer the potatoes until a fork can easily pierce the skin, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot with the garlic (be sure to discard the bay leaves). Add the oil and butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using a potato masher, smash the potatoes into a chunky mixture.
• Spread the potato mixture in an even layer in a large casserole or gratin dish. Season the potatoes again with salt and pepper, drizzle with additional oil and sprinkle the Parmesan over the top. Bake the potatoes until a crispy, golden crust forms on top, 35 to 45 minutes. Dot sour cream across the top and garnish with dill, chives and lemon zest while hot.

• Boil, peel and cube 2 pounds russet potatoes; toss with 2 tablespoons cider vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix 2 cups mayonnaise, 2 chopped scallions, 1 chopped celery stalk, 1 tablespoon each dijon mustard and vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, and salt. Toss with the potatoes.

DEE'S TRI COLORED POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• I like to steam my potatoes of this salad so the purple taters don't bleed their color so much. Steam until tender but not overdone & mushy. You can also use the steam water to cook the eggs. Chop all veggies while they are cooking. Cool eggs & potatoes until you can handle them, but still warm. Dice potatoes and pour salad dressing over them. Toss to coat. Dice eggs on top of potatoes. Cover and chill for a couple of hours. Put salad together by adding all the other ingredients. Mix well and adjust mayo or seasonings if necessary. Chill several hours before serving so flavors can marry. Enjoy!
