Ingredients

2 pounds red potatoes small
1/3 pound bacon diced
1 cup yellow onion peeled, thinly sliced
4 each scallions, spring or green onions chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
1 x salt
1 x black pepper freshly ground
2 large eggs hard-boiled

Directions

Wash the potatoes and drain.

Using a paring knife, trim a band of the peel about 1/2 inch wide (depending on the size of the potatoes) around the circumference of each potato.

This will form an attractive "belt".

Boil the trimmed potatoes gently in ample, lightly salted water until just tender.

The potatoes are done as soon as they pierce easily with a sharp knife.

Carefully drain, spread on a tray, and allow to cool.

Cook the bacon in a medium sized frying pan until almost crip.

Add the onion and cook until limp.

Drain off any excess fat.

Place the cooled potatoes in a bolw along with the cooked bacon and onion, and the scallions.

In another bowl, blend together the mayonnaise, dry mustard, vinegar, oil and salt and pepper to taste add to the bowl of potatoes and toss together.

Fold in the hard-boiled eggs.

Cover and refrigerate.

Grilled Portobello Salad with Goat Cheese

This is a superb recipe!!! Served it to our "New Year's Gang"--16 persons & was a great success! The only ingredient I added to the dressing was 1/2tsp. sugar which mellowed the tart taste. Also used a few rings of red onion for garnish & halved cherry tomatoes in place of the vine ripened, seeded tomato in the recipe. For an extra touch I served a toasted croustade rubbed with garlic & brushed with olive oil & covered with chopped & seeded tomato & goat cheese, then broiled again to warm on the side of each plate.
