Dill = Awesome

My AeroGardens continue to produce awesome stuff, providing some much needed zazz to my diet. The dill has done tremendously; I couldn't be happier with it. And I finally got around to using it tonight.

I inherited some nice baked potatoes from a catering job I did over the weekend, and this was very exciting because A) they were free, B) I didn't have to bake them myself, and C) I immediately knew what I was going to do with them once they were in my hot little hands - and I knew that my plans would involve dill.

I have felt a need for a shot of summer now that we are in the dead of winter, and nothing says summer more than potato salad! With lots of dill!

Very simple:

2 large baked potatoes, cubed
4 green onions, chopped
2 hard boiled eggs, chopped
2 small carrots, chopped
a whole bunch of dill, chopped
enough mayo to bind everything just nicely

And voilà:


Sooooooo looking forward to this winter being over and done with. In the meantime, I have another use for my dill, also inspired by the catering I did on the weekend, but that is a post for the near future!

That dill certainly is spectacular!! Nothing better than dill with potato, though I love it with salmon too. Mmmm.

Lil: yeah, if salmon were in season around here, I'd be using the dill on it for sure!

FGU: You had a huge storm, so I bet you're sick of snow! I'm hoping spring is around the corner for both of us.

Chris: these things are awesome. And idiot-proof. And I am loving the fresh lettuce, too. I should have cherry tomatoes soon, too.

Jhonny Walker: thanks, and thanks for visiting!
