I got this great recipe from About.com:Southern Food and it worked out very well – although I did make a few adjustments to the recipe.
My recipe is as follows:
3 lb new (red) potatoes – cooked in salted water until just tender
1 lb fresh green beans that have been trimmed, cooked for 5 minutes in boiling salted water, and rinsed in ice water
1/2 a medium red onion – slivered
1/4 of a vidalia (sweet) onion slivered
The Dressing consisted of the following:
In bowl big enough to whisk in:
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp sea salt
a few turns of fresh ground black pepper
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp dijon mustard
Whisk all of the ingredients and pour over the potatoes, green beans, and onions all of which have been combined in a large mixing bowl. The flavor is wonderful! Hope you enjoy. Write if you have questions.
