MINTED PEA SPRING POTATO SALAD

While this is called potato salad, it's not the traditional creamy potato salad you think of from a BBQ. It's really a side dish filled with fresh mint, parsley, potatoes, peas, and hard-boiled eggs. It's a fresh salad perfect for spring. Everything is dressed in a light lemony dressing that adds a little zing to the salad. A fresh Easter side dish option.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pound(s) red or new potatoes, small
1 bag(s) frozen peas (12 oz)
1 bunch(es) fresh mint leaves (need about 2 tablespoons, chopped)
1 bunch(es) fresh parsley (need about 2 tablespoons chopped)
4 - eggs, hard boiled
1/4 cup(s) olive oil, extra virgin
1/4 cup(s) lemon juice, fresh
1/4 cup(s) Parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Wash and scrub potatoes or if in my house, peel potatoes as no one likes the skins. Cut in half and place in boiling salted water. Add 4 eggs to this pan or you can boil them separately. They are usually done after about 10 minutes but test with a fork for doneness.
  • Add the bag of frozen peas to the water.
  • Turn off the heat and cover. You don't want the peas to get mushy and you want them to stay green but still cooked.
  • After about 10 minutes, drain in a colander. Peel eggs under cold running water and quarter them.
  • Mix your salad dressing of lemon, olive oil, chopped mint, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour all into a bowl or casserole dish and toss everything together.
  • Top with Parmesan cheese and serve or chill and serve later.
