Well, congratulations on the SUCCESS, Marti!

That's wonderful.  I'm going to take your lead and change the foods around and see what happens.....

I tried eating more protein and gained a pound so I'm going to experiment with vegetables and see what happens!

Enjoy your skinny self,

Hugs,

Kathi

Hi Shirley.....well, my potato salad is called like a French Potato Salad. I watched the Barefoot Contessa make it once and I liked the looks of it.

This is the way I do it.....I think...

I boil some potatoes for about 20-30 minutes, [bascially whatever I have on hand, she used white boiling potatoes and red potatoes].

I drain them in a colander and put a towel over them. [they will steam a little] when they are cool enough to handle [about 10 minutes] I slice them or quarter them, or whatever I feel like.

Then I put the potatoes in a bowl and put a little chicken stock [couple of T. and a good splash of white wine and let it soak in]

Dressing:

White wine vinegar---about 3 T
salt and pepper
About a teaspoon of Dijon mustard
then whisk in olive oil....about 10 T

Then I throw in some fresh basil [tons in my garden] or dill or parsley AND some sliced green onions.

Salt and pepper and then serve at room temperature.

Hope you like it....sorry it is not too exact.....Hugs, Marti
