You'll want to take this simple-to-assemble potato salad to all your picnics and outings. It's always on the menu when my tomato plants yield a bumper crop. Feel free to improvise by adding other fresh vegetables. Ingredients:
5 to 6 medium red potatoes, cooked and cut into 1-inch pieces |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 cup chopped red onion |
3 to 4 plum tomatoes, quartered |
1/3 cup olive oil |
3 to 4 fresh basil leaves, chopped |
1 jar (5-3/4 ounces) pimiento-stuffed olives, drained and halved |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1-1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
lettuce leaves, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Serve salad in a lettuce-lined bowl if desired. Yield: 12 servings. |
