Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove freshly minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup sliced black olives

Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Place the potatoes in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
Drain the potatoes and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Add the cooled potatoes to the bowl with the dressing. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly.
Fold in the parsley, cherry tomatoes, black olives, and green onions. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors.
