Ingredients
- 2 pounds medium sized potatoes, preferably red or Yukon Gold
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 1/3 cup pesto, bottled or home made (use more, if desired)
- 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes, chopped
- 2 teaspoons salt--more, if needed
- cream, half-and-half, or water, as needed, to thin pesto 
 
These Mediterranean flavors, usually associated with pasta salads, are equally good in a potato
salad.
 
Directions

1

  • Cover potatoes with cold water in a pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Add
    2 teaspoons salt and bring to a boil. Simmer, with lid ajar, until just tender when pierced with
    a sharp knife, 20-30 minutes, depending on size of potatoes. Drain thoroughly.
  • As soon as
    potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and dice. Sprinkle vinegar over and mix in gently.
  • Add pesto, thinning, if necessary, with water or cream, and tomatoes. Mix thoroughly
    but carefully. Taste for seasoning; add salt, if necessary.  Serve at room temperature
    or cover and chill.
