Description
Indulge in the delightful flavors of this Zesty New Potato Salad, a refreshing dish perfect for any occasion. With its vibrant mix of ingredients, this salad promises a burst of freshness in every bite.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds new potatoes
- 1/2 cup Miracle Whip
- 1/4 cup chopped green onion
- 4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Cook Potatoes
- Begin by preparing the new potatoes. Place them in a pot of boiling water and cook until tender. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.
2. Drain and Rinse
- Once the potatoes are cooked to perfection, drain them thoroughly and rinse with cold water. This step helps stop the cooking process and ensures the potatoes are cool enough to handle.
3. Prepare Dressing
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the Miracle Whip, chopped green onion, Dijon mustard, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly incorporated, creating a creamy and flavorful dressing.
4. Mix Gently
- Once the dressing is ready, add the cooled potatoes to the bowl. Gently toss the potatoes with the dressing, ensuring each piece is coated with the delicious mixture. Be careful not to mash the potatoes; you want them to maintain their shape and texture.
5. Refrigerate
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the potato salad for at least 3 hours, allowing the flavors to meld together and intensify. This chilling time is crucial for achieving the perfect taste and texture.
6. Serve and Enjoy
- After the salad has been chilled to perfection, it’s time to serve and enjoy! Garnish with additional chopped green onions or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for an extra burst of flavor. This Zesty New Potato Salad pairs beautifully with grilled meats, sandwiches, or enjoyed on its own as a light and satisfying meal.
