New-Potato Salad With Herb & Lemon Dressing image

A new healthy take on this classic summer salad, using a lighter mustard dressing instead of mayonnaise. A heavy mayo-based dressing is replaced with a light but punchy lemon, mustard and herb one. The potato skins are left on for a slower release of energy. Olive magazine 2011.
