Refreshing and bright, likely due to the wine vinegar + fresh cilantro. Will top my list for dinner guests — can do most prep a day ahead. Will also be a favorite for pot lucks when stumped with the duty of bringing salad. Sorry to say my kids didn't like it, likely due to the wine vinegar + fresh cilantro. ha ha.

Easy, tasty, and perfect for my husband who hates mayonaise. I used garlic salt for the seasoned salt. My kids did not like it, but that was expected. I think it would make a great side dish for a summer mexican menu. Maybe not authentic, but it's colorful and refreshing. Go heavy on the cilantro, it makes the dish.

Very tasty and healthful salad. I used red wine vinegar, vege-sal for the salt and used the maximum amount of cilantro (yes, it was important to the dish). I added a half cup of onions for a total of 1 cup (as a result my BF thought it was a bit too oniony but I thought it was just fine.) As for the vegetables, I steamed the carrots in a steamer on top of the boiling potatoes for about 12 minutes. You could also boil both of them together I guess. The potato package recommended 8 minutes, but I didn't think they were done in the alloted time so I boiled longer. Also, I used about 30 baby carrots sliced in half. Thanks for this recipe!

A really colourful and flavoursome side dish. I overcooked the potatoes the first time I began to follow this recipe, as I had not used red potatoes before, so we had mash for breakfast and then I started again. I cubed the potatoes before boiling on second attempt, so that I could keep an eye on them and it worked well. The wine vinegar really gives it a nice ZING.

Lovely! I added jalapenos that I sauteed with the onions and carrots. I bet it would be good with balsamic vinegar, too!
