With the school year coming to an end and Memorial Day just around the corner, let the unofficial start of summer begin! I used to think of summer as a time to relax, but our summer schedule is packed with camps, classes and potluck parties.  I always like to bring something special to potlucks (in addition to a dessert of course!) but often don’t have a ton of time to spend on it. That’s where this Kale and Apple Potato Salad comes to the rescue!

First start by boiling the potatoes.  Red potatoes are great for potato salad because their waxy texture helps them retain their shape after cooking.   It is still important to be careful not to overcook them- boil until they are just tender when pierced with a fork.  Then let the potatoes cool completely.  Meanwhile, dice the apples (whatever kind you like!), chop the kale, and whisk together the dressing.  Once the potatoes are cooled, simply mix everything together and chill.

Serve this Kale and Apple Potato Salad at your next party and everybody will be asking for the recipe!
