potato salad

Potato Salad

four cups new potatoes cut into pieces

one bell pepper diced

one onion diced

three celery ribs sliced

3tbsp dried tarragon flakes

1tbsp garlic powder

salt and pepper to taste.

mustard to taste

1/2 cup sour cream

Directions

Wash (scrub) potatoes and then cut into dice. You don't have to peel the loose peels should come off when you scrub.

Put potatoes along with 1/2 cup water in a microwave safe bowl. Cover.  Cook in microwave until done.

Drain potatoes. Put back in the cook bowl. Let cool to room temp.

Mean while dice onion, celery, and bell pepper.

When potatoes have cooled add diced vegies to potatoes.

Now add taragon, mustard(only if you want), salt, pepper, and sour cream to the vegetable mix.

Toss to coat.

Put in fridge to chill

You can do all of the above the night before. One less thing to worry with.

Put in  serving bowl.

If you are going to take some where make sure that every thing is very cold and pack in the cooler. Note rivera's very good suggestion. I'm planning on using it myself.

Good eats.

Note

I got this great idea from rivera. It's for mayo potato salad you can take to the beach. I love it thought you might too. Ann

Rivera had a great idea.
