Simple Potato Salad

Tonight's dinner will include pulled BBQ sandwiches, baked beans, and potato salad. The baked beans are from Trader Joe's (canned) and the pulled BBQ is also bought pre-packaged (see previous post). Potato salad is something that I love to experiment with; each batch is a little different from the time before.

Ingredients:
Baby red potatoes and fingerling potatoes (but any type will do)
Diced red onion (1/4 cup)
Diced heart of palm (about 3 short stalks)
1/2 Minced kosher dill pickle
Vegenaise
A dab of Grey Poupon
Oregano
Basil
Salt and pepper
Sprinkle of cayanne

Cut the potatoes into bite size pieces. I kind of half-peeled them, because a little skin with this type of potato is good.


Put them in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 20 minutes. Then, drain and rinse with cold water.

Mix in the onions, pickle, palm heart and spices and allow to cool for about 20 minutes.


Then, mix in some spoonfuls of Vegenaise and a dab of Grey Poupon. Put it in the refrigerator to cool. :)
