Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb small new potatoes
1 lb green beans, fresh, cleaned and broke into 2 in pieces
8 oz bacon, cut into small pieces
1 onion, diced
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 1/2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Cook the potatoes in pan covered with water until just fork tender.
  • 2. Steam green beans until firm yet cooked.
  • 3. Heat olive oil in pan over medium heat. Add the onions and bacon. Continue cooking over medium heat until everything is cooked well, yet the onions retain their shape.
  • 4. Slice the cooked potatoes into nice sized pieces and put in a bowl. Add the drained green beans (string beans) and the bacon.
  • 5. Add the red wine vinegar to the pan and put on low heat for approximately 1 minute so the vinegar cleans the pan and mixes in with all the remaining grease and flavor. Use a spatula to scrape the vinegar mixture on top of your salad bowl. Add the fruit vinegar. Add a splash of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. More vinegar or olive oil can be added for personal preference.
  • 6. Mix and Serve.
