Good Eating Monday: Texas Style Potato Salad!

Image
It's another Potato Salad try for my "Summer of Potato Salad" as I search for the best Potato Salad recipes to add to my repartee. This one is called "Texas Style" Potato Salad. It's a tad spicy with lots of onion, bacon and fresh cilantro; made with olive oil & red vinegar. No Mayo.  I thought it was good, but not one I'd put on my list to make again. Our friend, Hope, loved it and devoured two helpings. The recipe calls for two minced Serrano Chile Peppers, but I used just one, because Hubby doesn't like too much spiciness.

So this weeks try was "Dill & Feta Red Potato Salad." It was DELICIOUS! My taste-testers gobbled it down and gave it two-thumbs up! It's a keeper! No peeling and no Mayo;  dressing is an olive oil/red wine vinegar combo seasoned with garlic & Dill. (Photo is my own) Dill & Feta Red Potato Salad Ingredients 6 medium r...
