French Potato Salad
(From "The Best of Bridge"cookbook: "That's Trump")

2 lbs. small red new potatoes
5 strips bacon, cooked crisp and chopped
3 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh dill or 2 tsp. dried
4 green onions, chopped
1/3 Cup finely chopped red onion

Dressing:
1/3 Cup red wine vinegar
3/4 Cup olive oil
2 tsp. dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, minced
freshly ground black pepper


Boil potatoes until just tender. Drain and cut into chunks. Place in salad bowl with remaining salad ingredients. Combing dressing ingredients, mix well and toss with warm potatoes. Add freshly ground pepper.

Salad should marinate in dressing for several hours in refrigerator. It is important to let it marinate. The spuds soak up all that yummy tangy stuff and someone is guaranteed to use the end of their sandwich to soak up the salad dressing left on their plate!
