Ingredients
- 5 potatoes (large)
- 1½ cups carrots green bean mixture (diced, peas, corn, from the frozen food section)
- 1¼ cups mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 4 tbsp lime juice (freshly squeezed or store bought)
- ⅛ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ground black pepper (to taste)
- 3 tbsp cilantro (finely chopped)
- 3 tbsp green onion (diced)
- ¼ white onion (shredded)
- ½ cup green olives (diced, or black olives, optional)
Method
- Rinse the potatoes and boil them whole completely immersed in water for 8-10 minutes
- (Poke a fork in them to see if they are done inside, fork should not stick but should slide in and out with ease)
- When potatoes are soft place them in cold water and remove the peels
- Cut the potatoes into small cubes (the Brazilians usually do very small diced pieces, but I prefer bigger chunks).
- Cook the mixed vegetable medley in boiling water, drain and then mix in with the potatoes.
- In a separate bowl mix together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, lime juice, garlic powder, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste
- Add finely chopped parsley, green onions, grated onion, and chopped olive (if desired)
- Pour liquid mixture in with the potatoes and veggies, and mix til evenly distributed through salad
- Let this chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours ( if you don\'t have time to chill it it can be served as is, and it will still be delicious. I just prefer it cold).
