Description

A delightful warm salad featuring tender potatoes, crispy bacon, and a tangy dressing, perfect as a side for any meal.


Ingredients

  • 2 pounds baby red potatoes, washed and scrubbed
  • 8 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley


Instructions

  1. Cook the potatoes by placing them in a large pot, covering them with cold water. Bring to a boil, adding salt. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain water, let steam dry, and cut into chunks.
  2. Fry the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
  3. Sauté the onion in the same skillet for 3 to 4 minutes until softened, then stir in the minced garlic and sauté for another minute.
  4. Make the dressing by whisking together honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add apple cider vinegar and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until slightly reduced.
  5. Combine the chopped potatoes with the dressing and toss to coat. Add the crispy bacon and serve warm, garnished with parsley.

Notes

Great served warm or at room temperature. For a vegan option, replace bacon with smoked tempeh or mushrooms.
