Many thanks I found this on http://www.ichef.com/ichef-recipes/Vegetables/50326.html I see no reason why you couldn't boil the beets and potatoes together, as long as you know how long to cook each (you don't want to overcook one or undercook the other). or cook the beets first, then boil the potatoes in the same (red) water. Rosy Beet And Potato Salad With Garlic Dressing Categories: Vegetables, Salads, Side dish Yield: 6 servings 4 md Beets with greens 2 lg Potatoes 4 Garlic cloves 3 tb Oil 1 Lemon; juiced Salt and pepper; to taste Remove greens from beets. Cut greens into 1-inch-thick slices and boil until wilted and tender. Drain thoroughly and set aside. Boil beets until completely tender. Drain, then cover in cold water to cool. When cooled, slip off roots and skins. Meanwhile, boil potatoes in their skins until tender. Drain, cool thoroughly, then remove skins. Cut peeled beets and potatoes into bite sized chunks and place in mixing bowl with cooled greens. Mince or press garlic, then combine with oil and lemon juice. Season dressing with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, then toss with beets and potatoes. Serve chilled with crusty bread.

Please e-mail and post your personal favourite. Many thanks Here is one that I created last year. it was outstanding! Red Potato Salad ~1 lb. red potatoes (I used the tiny creamers) 3 Tbsp mayonnaise 1 tsp balsamic vinegar (I used the really good stuff. nothing but the best. right?) 2 Tbsp olive oil 1 tsp lemon-flavored oil 1 tsp granulated garlic dash of cayenne 8 drops of hot sauce dash of crushed red pepper 3/4 tsp dried tarragon Steam the potatoes until cooked through. Remove the potatoes to a bowl of ice water and let cool sufficiently. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl large enough to hold the potatoes and whisk till smooth. Dice the cooled potatoes and stir gently into the dressing and serve. -- Mimi Mimi's Cyber Kitchen, http://www.cyber-kitchen.com/, the WWW's first food portal, is easier to use, packed with new features and expanded categories in a brand-new format. 1000's of recipes and links, hints, recipe board, holidays, greeting cards, cookbook reviews. -- ~~Rec.food.recipes is moderated; only recipes and recipe requests are accepted for posting.
