Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 servings

Ingredients

2 to 2 1/2 pounds tiny new potatoes or 6 medium red-skinned potatoes, scrubbed
1/2 cup natural low-fat vinaigrette, preferably balsamic
4 to 6 ounces mixed baby greens (mesclun)
4 ounces crumbled goat cheese (such as Montrachet)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bake or microwave the potatoes until done but still firm. When cool enough to handle, cut the new potatoes in half, or cut the regular potatoes into large dice.

    Step 2

    Combine the potatoes with the vinaigrette in a mixing bowl and stir gently. Let stand for about 10 minutes.

    Step 3

    Divide the greens among 4 salad plates or shallow bowls. Drain off any excess vinaigrette from the potatoes in a small container and drizzle it over the greens.

    Step 4

    Divide the potatoes among the salad plates, placing them atop the greens. Top each serving with goat cheese and serve.
