French Style Potato Salad

This recipe is modified from the 1,000 Vegan Recipes cookbook. I doubled the amount of potatoes because the ratio of potatoes to oil was not good — way too oily. We had this for our main dish with a huge salad. This is definitely more of a nice light summer recipe vs the middle of winter dinner. I gave it an A- … my husband gave it a B- (he liked the taste but wasn’t convinced it was very healthy). Forgot to take a picture yet again. I probably won’t be making this one again until the summer … but it is very good!

Serves: 6-8 for a main dish – more as a side dish
