It?s August and time for another Recipe ReDux! This month?s theme: Most Memorial Vacation Meal.

Please share the story behind a hard-to-forget-dish and then share the recipe showing how you made the dish healthier.

Instantly, I thought of summer bbq?s on the cape and delicious potato salads. You know the ones I?m talking about ? from local hole-in-the-wall summer shacks filled with sour cream, small pieces of celery and TONS of mayo!!!

Memories of pasta summer vacations filled my mind?

Lemon Fennel Potato Salad

  • 2 lbs. new potatoes
  • 2 fennel bulbs, thinly chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, mined
  • lemon olives(found at Whole Foods), sliced in half
  • 1/2 jar capers, drained
  • pint cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
  • 4 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp. lemon zest
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Place a steamer basket in a large saucepan, add 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Put potatoes in the basket and steam until barely tender when pierced, about 12-18 minutes, depending on size. When potatoes have cooled enough to touch, slice in half.

In a large bowl- add fennel, garlic, olives, capers, cherry tomatoes and potatoes. Mix. Add rice vinegar, salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
