My friend Leslie has an incredible Hot Red Potato Salad recipe.  When I had the first bite, I knew I was in love!  I know you will be, too.  I also thought you might like it for St Patrick’s Day, Easter or even a Summer Barbecue.

5 lbs red potatoes, cut into cubes

1/4 c melted butter

1/4 c olive oil

Garlic powder

Season salt

DRESSING:

2 c mayonnaise

4 cloves garlic, pressed

3 T lemon juice

2 T red wine vinegar

1 c fresh grated Parmesan cheese

ADD-INS & TOPPINGS

Chopped green onions

Italian parsley

1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, coarsely chopped

Croutons

Preheat oven to 400*.  Toss cubed potatoes with olive oil and butter.  Sprinkle generously with garlic powder and season salt.  Bake for 45 minutes.  Broil for 5 minutes.  Place potatoes in a large mixing bowl.

In a separate bowl mix mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, and red wine vinegar.  Add Parmesan cheese and mix well.  Pour over potatoes and stir.  Add croutons, Italian parsley and green onions.  Serve warm.  Actually it is great cold, too.

It can be served with a roasted turkey, corned beef, hamburgers or as a main dish

Seriously.  This Hot Red Potato Salad will make your mouth smile!  I guarantee it.

Make it a fabulous Thursday!
