CONFETTI POTATO SALAD

Such a pretty and yet so easy and great tasting potato salad my whole family loves. Even a little seeded and diced chilli can be added and pine nuts can be used in place of sesame seeds if you prefer. I use different colour capsicums for colour but you can use just one colour, and it still tastes great!!!

This festive, colorful, salad - made with white and sweet potatoes - tastes as good as it looks. The mild, simple, dressing enhances the salad, especially if you can refrigerate it overnight, but a couple of hours will still be good.
