Roasted Potato Salad

The average summery potato picnic salad gets a nutritional twist in this Roasted Potato Salad recipe. It uses a vinegar-based dressing instead of the usual mayonnaise — making the salad lower in sugar and fat — and is loaded with good-for-you veggies like celery, arugula, and red onion. Together, they give a burst of flavor while providing fiber, magnesium, vitamin C, and more nourishing nutrients through arugula, radishes. There’s a dollop of agave for some extra flavor. All in all, this is a wonderful revisitation of a perennial favorite.
