Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds little potatoes cut into halves
  • 8 ounces French or green beans steamed or boiled
  • 2 eggs hard boiled
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice + zest from 1/2 lemon
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prep your little potatoes (boil them for about 15 min or until they're cooked), steam the beans or boil them until they're tender-crisp (I steamed them for 2 minutes in the microwave-friendly bag they came in), and hard boil your eggs (I did an 8 minute boil). You can do this all at once if you're coordinated. ;)
  • Meanwhile, add all the dressing ingredients to a jar and shake to combine.
  • Allow your potatoes to cool for at least 15 minutes.
  • Assemble the salad and gently toss with the dressing. Add extra salt & pepper if desired. 

Notes

  • Serves 4+ as a side dish.
