Yummy Warm New Potato Salad

Submitted by Jencathen

"I love vinegar and oil based potato salads. It is a nice change from the traditional mayo ones. This is quick and easy to make. It calls for peppered bacon, but you can substitute regular bacon just make sure to add pepper when seasoning."

1. Clean the potatoes and boil them skin on in salted water for about 10-15 minutes until fork tender, but not falling apart.
