Picnic time


Summer means picnics and what family gathering would be complete without a nice bowl of cool potato salad! Here is an easy country potato salad sure to please your guests this Memorial Day weekend:

Here's All you need:

3 medium baking potatoes

1 cup chopped celery

1/2 cup minced onion

1 cup frozen peas

1 Tablespoon prepared mustard

1/2 cup mayonnaise, lowfat

1/2 cup yogurt, nonfat plain

fresh cracked black pepper to taste

lettuce and tomato

So easy to make:

Wash the potatoes, leave skin on and cut in bite-size chunks.

Place in pan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, lower to simmer and cook uncovered until potatoes are tender, about 20 mintes.

Drain in colander and sprinkle lightly with cold water.

In the mean time, put the rest of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Drain potatoes well and add to the bowl.

Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.

Garnish with fresh lettuce and sliced tomatoes.

Happy Summer. Keep eating Healthy!
