Planning our Fourth of July menu last weekend got me thinking about the dearth of really good, fresh, non-heavy potato salad recipes out there.

With the holidays wrapping up, most of us have enjoyed our fair share of treats! So I’m here with a healthy but delicious dinner recipe to help get us all back on track.
