Lemon Dill Potato Salad with Asparagus

Ingredients

  • 2 lb gold potatoes
  • 1 bunch asparagus
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 bunch radish, thinly sliced (optional)

Vinaigrette Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp whole grain mustard
  • 2 garlic gloves, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Place potatoes in a large pot and add enough cool water to cover the potatoes by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook for 12 – 15 minutes, or until the potatoes can be pierced by tip of a sharp paring knife easily.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, dill, Dijon mustard, and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then set aside until ready to use.
  3. Carefully transfer the potatoes to a bowl with a slotted spoon. Then, add the asparagus to the boiling water and turn off the heat. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  4. Drain the asparagus, then plunge it into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let the veggies cool for 5-10 minutes, until the potatoes can easily be handled, then slice the asparagus into bite size pieces and quarter the potatoes.
  5. Add the asparagus, potatoes, and red onion to a large bowl. Pour in the vinaigrette and toss gently with a rubber spatula. May serve warm or chill for 30 minutes before serving.
