How do I know that Summer has finally arrived? It isn't by looking at the calendar, but by peeking out into my Urban Jungle on the porch! The sun is so warm and the days so long that my herbs suddenly seem to be bursting out of their window boxes and the tomatoes are up to the balcony ceiling! I decided to celebrate by making the herbs the center of attention in this Not-Your-Ordinary Potato Salad recipe.
I enjoy this recipe for a number of reasons. Not only does it give me a chance to enjoy all the "fruits" or my gardening labor, but I also think there's just nothing that says "Summer" quite like potato salad. If that isn't cause for celebration enough, this recipe happens to be a dramatic departure from the unappealing, over-dressed and mayonaisse-laden potato salad that comes in giant tubs at the supermarket. This version is fresh, low in fat, super tangy and wonderfully flavorful. The dressing is loaded with fresh herbs and gets it's marvelously creamy consistency from Greek-style yoghurt. The addition of greens makes the potato salad even better for you. Happy Summer, everybody! —the preservery.
