Bonnies Lemon Pepperoncini Potato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot with cold water and add 2 tablespoons salt. Cover, bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, cut in half and transfer to a bowl.
• For the dressing, mix together the mayonnaise, marinara sauce and Parmesan. Pour the dressing over the potatoes, add the scallions and give it a stir.
• Fold in the mozzarella pearls, pepperoni, olives, basil, pepper and three-quarters of the chopped parsley. Garnish with the remaining parsley.

Steps:

• 1. Select thin skinned red potatoes if possible. Scrub them well, remove any blemishes, and no need to peel.
• 2. Cut the small potatoes into quarters, cut larger potatoes into chunks. They cook better if they are more uniform in size.
• 3. They should look like this.
• 4. Cover the potatoes with about an inch of water and bring them to a boil and turn the heat to low and simmer until done but still firm. Don't overcook.
• 5. Chop the onions fine and set aside.
• 6. Select four small pepperoncini peppers and remove the stems, but not the seeds.
• 7. Chop the pepperoncini peppers fine. Gather all the other ingredients to make the dish.
• 8. When the potatoes are tender, drain in a colander, then dump the potatoes back into the hot pot with the lid.
• 9. Push the potatoes to the side of the pot, and quickly add the rest of the ingredients, starting with the butter first. Push the potatoes back over the top of the ingredients, add the lid and turn the burner on low for 2 minutes. Turn the burner off, This melts the butter, and heats up the garlic, peppers and seasonings.
• 10. Gently mix the potatoes until they are coated with the hot butter mixture. At this point, you have a great side dish that goes with any fish, meat, pork, or chicken! But we are making an equally great potato salad, so we will now need to let this mixture come to room temperature before adding the dressing.
• 11. Mix the mayonnaise and the celery seeds until well combined. Fold the mixture into the cooled potatoes. I love this texture, it is creamy like mashed potatoes with small chunks of potatoes. I use my spoon to cut any potatoes that are too big. Let the mixture sit overnight or at least 6 hours until the flavors have married. Enjoy!
• 12. Here is how it looks!
• 13. Cook's Tip: Usually, I make this recipe as a hot potato side dish, and then make what is leftover into a potato salad to be used the next day.
• 14. Yummy! Want a bite?

Steps:

• 1. Cook's Tip: A word about cheese. I use jack cheese, fontina, gruyere cheese, cheddar, but I like fontina and jack cheese the best. For the milk mixture, I use a combination of sour cream, heavy cream and 2% milk, which is what I had on hand. You can use all milk, or all cream, or mix it up. Use what you like. Experiment to your hearts content. This is a fun recipe for that!
• 2. Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 10 inch glass pie dish with Pam.
• 3. Scatter 2 teaspoons of garlic on bottom of Pam sprayed pie dish. Put half of the sliced potatoes on top of the garlic, overlapping the slices. Add half of the onion slices. Add salt and pepper (go easy on the pepper) Sprinkle 1/3 cup of cheese (your choice) over the onions evenly. Repeat the layer of garlic, potatoes, onions, and salt, pepper. Add the milk mixture evenly over the top, and then add the remaining 2/3 cup of cheese of choice, plus, the 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese.
• 4. Cover the pie with foil and bake 30 minutes, uncover and bake 30 minutes more. You may want to do a low broil to brown the top. Cut into wedges to serve. Enjoy!
• 5. Cook's Note: I also have a Tater and Onion Pie with ham that is another variation of this recipe and it is posted.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the pasta, tomatoes, olives and pepperoncini. In a small bowl, combine the oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Pour over pasta mixture and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.

Steps:

• 1. Please read through the instructions before you make the recipe, because some of the ingredients go in separately to make the dressing.
• 2. Boil the eggs and cool. Separate the eggs from the whites. Set aside. Quarter the red potatoes and boil them in water with a teaspoon of salt. Make sure they are done, but not over cooked. Drain thoroughly, and cool the potatoes and then dice them.
• 3. In a large bowl, mash the egg yolks, stir in the oil, vinegar and lime juice. Add mayonaise, pepper sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well with a whisk.
• 4. Add diced potatoes to the mayonaise mixture along with the pickle, green onions, red pepper and celery. Chop egg whites fine and add to the salad. Stir gently, but mix well.
• 5. Refrigerate until serving time. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Boil the new potatoes for 15 mins until just slightly overcooked but still holding their shape. While still warm, toss with all the other ingredients. Season. Can be made up to a day ahead and chilled, but take out of the fridge a good few hours before serving.

Steps:

• In a small jar, combine olive oil, pepperoncini and brine, dill, and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper, seal, and shake vigorously until combined.
