Potato Salad That Will Make Your Friends Think You're Classy Because You Are, Right?


Right, so first of all, I need to figure out this whole 'taking better pictures of my food' thing. Experienced bloggers out there I implore you, teach me your awesomeness. I'm talking about that awesomeness where you take a picture and everything looks fabulous. Yes, that.

Now for the potato salad. This tastiness is pretty much born out of lack of time and love of potatoes. Sure, I want to be that girl that has the time to make gorgeous food that literally looks like I belong as a member of the Stepford Wive's Club, but do I really have the time? The patience? The answer to the first is no and to the second.... I'm learning. So, here is this lovely red potato salad tastiness. It's simple to make and pretty much requires little to no skill which is absolutely perfect for me. I start small, people.

Ingredients:
4 medium sized red potatoes
Low fat Sour Cream (if you're health conscious. If you're not, bring on the fat)
Chopped fresh Chives
Salt to Taste

What to do:
I'm assuming that you're a relatively functional human being and can dice potatoes into small, bite sized cubes. If you can't feel free to find the nearest responsible adult who loves to slice and dice. After you're done prepping, cook the potatoes. My preferred method (which I just discovered today) is in a rice cooker. It's so easy! You set it and forget it (thanks Ron Popeil)! Cook until tender.

Next, drain the potatoes and get rid of any excess water. Let them sit there just a bit so that they cool off and won't get all mushy when you toss them. Place them in a nice bowl (if you're classy, and I KNOW you are) and add the sour cream and chives. How much sour cream you ask? Well, enough to coat the potatoes as you toss them. Add salt to taste

And VOILA! You have a Red Potato Salad that probably took you 15 min total to put together (not including cooking time). How do you like them apples?
