French Potato Salad

French Potato Salad

As an “Irish” girl, I LOVE potatoes.  I mean, L O V E them.  I could eat them with every meal of every day.  Potatoes all the ways.  Hot, fried, boiled, baked, smothered in butter, smothered in sauces, //smothered in balsamic//; Cold, covered in mayo, mixed with bacon and scallions…  Potatoes.  All.  The.  Ways.

So as per usual I was perusing Pinterest recently and happened upon //this recipe// for French Potato Salad.  Hmmm, I hear the word “French” and immediately think of tarragon, and boom, tarragon is in this, and I am sold.

I made this as a side dish for a steak dinner one night and Aaron and I couldn’t stop eating them.  THESE POTATOES WERE SO GOOD.  They were so good, in fact, that I made them for a little BBQ we had over the July 4th weekend.  We had some guests attending on the healthier side so I didn’t think they’d want a traditional, mayo-based potato salad AND macaroni salad, so I decided to go oil-based for the potato salad to switch it up a bit.  Also, bonus, this can be eaten at room temperature, so no worries about having food outside in the warm weather.

Anyway, I really love these potatoes and am definitely keeping them on my recipe rotation.  I know it sounds like I’ve loved all there recipes I’ve made so far for #52NewEats, and mostly, yeah, I have, but I guess I just love food that much.  ?  Next week I will be sharing another #52NewEatsFail with you though… so stay tuned!
