Submitted by SusieQusie

"An unusual (for me) blend of ingredients in a non-mayo potato salad. I prefer it warm but the original recipe does suggest serving it chilled. Your choice."

Thanks for a great tasting recipe. I'm always looking for easy recipes to make for DH's lunch. This is definitely a keeper. The only change I made was to leave out the green beans (he doesn't like them) & I added onions & 1 boiled egg.

This was good. My DH really enjoyed it. I thought it needed a little more dressing. But a nice change of pace from regular potato salad.

I forgot to put the olives in *blush*. I really loved this! I used small Yukon Golds and just used the marinade that the artichokes were in for the vinegar to add more artichoke flavor and I simply didn't have the parsley to use.. Lots of flavor, little fat. Mine was served at room temp and that worked well for me. The servings are generous, I made 2 and I have enough for 4! wow, thats a lot of salad for the calories :D. I paired it with with some oven-fried fish for a very tasty lunch.

Very very good! I couldn't get any small potatoes, so I just used large red potatoes and cut them into smaller bits. ;-) I doubled the pepper (freshly ground) and added some coarse Morrocan paprika for extra flavor and color. Susie, I'm with you, I prefer this warm as well, although there's a Tupperware with my name on it in the office fridge and I'm having this cold for lunch. Thanks for posting!
