- While potatoes cool, prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
- Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, chop them into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
- Add the chopped herbs, red onion, and cherry tomatoes to the potatoes.
- Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss to combine everything evenly.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper as desired.
- Serve at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Add a squeeze of lemon juice for a zesty kick. Customize with your favorite veggies, like bell peppers or cucumber. Serve on a bed of greens for an elegant touch.
