Potato Salad with 7-Minute Eggs and Mustard Vinaigrette
This hearty Potato Salad will become your new favorite side dish. It is a modern hybrid of the classic potato and egg salads does not involve any mashing or gobs of mayo (although there’s nothing wrong with that!). Instead, the potatoes and eggs are halved, garnished with fresh herbs, sprinkled with some pickles for crunch, and drizzled with a tangy homemade mustard vinaigrette.
