No Mayo Potato Salad

Directions

  1. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook 10–12 minutes until fork-tender.
  2. Drain the potatoes into a colander and rinse under cold water. Let them cool in a bowl in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes before cutting into cubes, if not already cut.
  3. While the potatoes cool, cook the diced bacon in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy, about 5–6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, white wine vinegar, mustard, and pepper to make the dressing.
  5. Place the cubed potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the potatoes and gently stir to coat evenly.
  6. Add bacon, green onions, dill, and parsley. Gently stir to combine.
  7. Let the salad sit for at least 20 minutes to allow flavors to meld together before serving.
