Arugula Potato Salad with Green Olives

Who doesn't love a healthy potato salad, minus mayo, of course?

Ingredients

  • 3 waxy potatoes washed and peeled
  • 1 large bunch arugula
  • 1 bunch purslane trimmed
  • 10 large Greek green olives preferably pitted, drained then halved

Dressing

Instructions

  1. Cut the potatoes into quarters or chunks. Place in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Season with salt. Simmer until the potatoes are fork tender. Drain.
  2. While the potatoes are simmering, whisk together all the dressing ingredients until emulsified. Set aside.
  3. Trim the arugula, removing the stems if they are annoyingly thin and stringy. Trim the tough stems off the purslane. Coarsely chop both the arugula and the purslane.
  4. Mix the warm potatoes with the salad greens and olives. Re-whisk the dressing if it has separated. Add to the salad, gently mix and serve.
