Potato Salad with Bacon and Fresh Herbs

Fill a Dutch oven with water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once you hit a boil, drizzle the water with a bit of olive oil and add the potatoes. Boil until fork tender. This should take about 10 minutes but make sure to test with a fork. When done remove the pot from the heat.

If you have a stand mixer, it will definitely come in handy right now. If not, use a large mixing bowl with a big wooden spoon.

Drain the potatoes and dump them into the bowl of the mixer (or another large bowl). Add the rest of the ingredients and use your mixer to combine everything on the “stir” setting for just a minute or two. Be careful—we don’t want mashed potatoes.

Salt and pepper to taste. Do not leave this part out.

Enjoy!
