Roasted Potato Salad
Roasting enhances the flavor of vegetables by pulling out their natural sugars. If you're a little hesitant about having Brussels sprouts in this recipe, step out of your comfort zone. Roasting Brussels sprouts takes away their bitter flavor and makes them quite tasty.
Enjoy this unique combination of vegetables as a salad served on top of lettuce or as a side dish. And, give yourself a pat on the back for eating Brussels sprouts.
Ingredients
- 1 pound B size red potatoes, unpeeled
- 1/2 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed & halved
- 1 cup trimmed fresh green beans, cut into 1" pieces
- 1 1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon tarragon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped red onions
- 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts
- 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
Instructions
- Scrub potatoes well. Place in a large saucepan, and cover with water. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat slightly to a soft rolling boil, and cook 15 minutes. Drain, and allow to cool slightly.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut potatoes into quarters, and put in a large bowl, along with Brussels sprouts and green beans. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, tarragon, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat. Place vegetables on a baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes, and flip. Cook another 10 minutes, or until vegetables are slightly blackened. Place in a large bowl, and set aside.
- Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in skillet over medium heat. Add onions and pecans, and cook until onions are soft and translucent. Mix in with potatoes and vegetables. To serve, place ½ cup lettuce on each plate, and top with roasted potato-vegetable mixture. Drizzle a little olive oil over each serving, if desired.
- Yield: 4 servings (serving size: about 1 cup)
The potato salad was amazing! I paired it with the Lemon-Tahini dressing and..wow! This site is simply invaluable. Thank you
I’m so glad you liked it! Thanks for your comments. May God bless you abundantly as you seek Him through the Daniel Fast!
If you hit “ctrl” and the letter “p” together, it will show you the page ready to print. Then choose the number of pages (I usuallly just select the recipe (1 page). It prints beautifully with picture and all. If you want the comments, then add those pages or print all.
Am wondering if you would be able to add a “Print” button on your recipes, so it is easier to print them. Thanks!
That’s a good suggestion. Probably not something I can add right away (I have hundreds of recipes), but I will keep it in mind! Thanks for your comment!
Do you do your own web design for this site? There is usually one place you can make the adjustment and add a print button, and it should show up in every recipe post. Not sure but that is how mine works on my blog. 🙂
What plug in do you use?
My blog is on blogger.com, so they provide all the tools needed. I guess your type of website would be different, but still, I would think there would be a one time fix and it would apply to all. Anyway, thanks for the great recipes! 🙂
