4TH OF JULY POTATO SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Directions:
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Chop up the red pepper and red onion and place on a pan with the potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil.
• Cook in oven for 15-20min or until potatoes are tender.
• Allow potatoes to cool. Then cut into slices.
• Put cooked potatoes, pepper, and onion into a bowl. Add chives, green onion, parsley, lemon zest, and seasonings. Mix together.
• Drizzle on the lemon and olive oil dressing (again, add to taste) and toss all together.
• Let chill for an hour or so that the potatoes really soak up the dressing and seasonings. Even leave in overnight if you have the time.
• Serve.
• ***Again, all of these ingredients where added to taste. You may want to add a little more of this or use a little less of that.
• ***Also, I forgot to use the red onion when I made this, but it would add some good flavor. You don't have to cook it with the potatoes if you don't want to, you could definitely leave it raw.
