Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high. Add new potatoes, and cook until tender when pierced with a knife, about 15 minutes. Drain and spread on a large rimmed baking sheet to cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium, stirring often, until crisp, about 12 minutes. Remove from skillet, and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.
- Stir together mayonnaise, pickle juice, Creole mustard, and Cajun seasoning in a large bowl. Add bell peppers, pickles, celery, hard-cooked eggs, scallions, cooled potatoes, and three-fourths of the bacon pieces; stir gently until evenly coated (trying not to break bacon pieces or eggs). Transfer to a serving bowl, and garnish with remaining bacon pieces and additional scallions. Store, covered, in refrigerator until ready to serve.
BLACKENED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM SALAD
A SPEEDY cajun themed main-dish salad. Recipe from Cooking Light, May 1998. It is very highly rated on their website. After making this recipe, I have to say I was pleased. I marinated my mushrooms for about 30 minutes and they had great flavor. I used Emeril Essence (left over from another recipe) as the Cajun seasoning. My only suggestion would be to cut the mushrooms very thin so that they aren't rubbery after cooking. ENJOY!
