Thought we should start thinking ahead to Monday, the 4th of July!! Saw this one in the paper this morning that has an interesting twist to the "normal" p.s.
(serves 6)
1 lb. med. boiling potatoes, scrubbed and sliced 1/4" thick, preferably using a mandolin (please
use guard!)
1 small baking potato (about 1/2 lb.), peeled and sliced 1/4" thick, using the mandolin
1/4 cup natural* cider vinegar (I like Bragg's*)
1&1/2 t. kosher salt
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream or plain no-fat Greek yogurt
2 oz. crumbled soft, creamy blue cheese
1-2 t. Frank's Hot Sauce*
1/2 cup finely chopped celery plus celery leaves for garnish
Freshly* ground black pepper
In a med. saucepan combine the potatoes with cold lightly salted water to cover by 2", and bring the water to a boil. Simmer the potatoes until they are just tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 5-7 mins. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar and the salt until the salt is dissolved. When the potatoes are tender, drain and add them immediately to the bowl with the vinegar mixture. Toss to coat, and let cool to room temp, about 30 mins. Add the mayo, sour cream blue cheese, hot sauce, chopped celery, and pepper to taste to the potatoes and toss well. If the potato salad seems dry, stir in some cold cater and toss again. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the celery leaves.

Have FUN today!!!!
Love yourself and each other,
