Herbed Potato Salad

Healthy Fact of the Day

This herbed potato salad uses olive oil and apple cider vinegar in the dressing, making it a lighter and healthier alternative to traditional mayonnaise-based potato salads. The fresh herbs add a pop of color and a burst of flavor, as well as some extra vitamins and antioxidants.

Ingredients

 

  • 2 lbs baby potatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

 

Instructions

  1. Place the halved baby potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

  2. Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey to create the dressing.

  4. Add the cooled potatoes, dill, parsley, and green onions to the bowl with the dressing. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly.

  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. Chill the potato salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  7. Before serving, give the potato salad a final toss and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Elevate your next picnic or barbecue with this vibrant and herbaceous potato salad that’ll have your guests tossing aside the idea of a boring side dish and digging into a bowl of pure potato perfection!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

The Cook Who Feeds Themselves Well: A Guide to Solo Cooking at Its Best

Research on solo eating and dietary quality has found a complex picture that complicates the simple narrative that eating alone is nutritionally inferior to eating with others. While shared meals are associated with greater dietary variety and higher vegetable consumption on average, solo eaters who cook for themselves regularly — who apply genuine attention to the meals they prepare alone — demonstrate dietary quality comparable to or better than people who eat primarily in social settings but rely on restaurant or processed food. The determinant of dietary quality in solo eating is not the absence of company but the presence of cooking — the act of preparing food from whole ingredients for oneself, regardless of audience, is what most strongly predicts nutritional quality in solo eating contexts.

Garlic Butter Baked Chicken Breast

Combining butter and olive oil in the basting mixture means you get the flavor complexity of butter and the stability of olive oil’s monounsaturated fats with a smaller amount of each than either alone would require. Chicken breast is one of the leanest, highest-protein cuts available, and the basting method keeps it juicy without adding significant additional fat beyond the modest amount in the basting mixture.

Happy National Root Beer Float Day — A&W Is Giving Away Free Floats Today

A classic root beer float is one of the more reasonable fast food desserts — a small float at A&W typically runs around 200 calories, which is significantly less than most milkshakes or blended frozen drinks. The vanilla soft serve provides a small amount of calcium and protein, and enjoying it as a standalone treat rather than tacking it on after a full meal keeps the overall intake in check. If you’re making a root beer float at home to celebrate the day, using a diet root beer and a small scoop of low-fat vanilla ice cream gives you the same nostalgic experience with a fraction of the calories.
