GOOD TASTE: Purple Potato Vegetable Medley

Purple Potato Vegetable Medley via homework - carolynshomework (7)I was so excited to see these little purple potatoes at my regular market. It’s always fun to try new things. And these little guys exceeded my expectation with their incredible burst of color.

I wanted to retain as much color as possible so even though I love roasted vegetable I decided to boil these potatoes and add them to a prepared vegetable medley. It doesn’t get much easier than that.

  1. Wow!
    These potatoes are so beautiful! I need to find them!!
    They would make any meal quite pretty with their purple interior. I can imagine them fanned out on a tart shell and the drizzled with a creamy herb vinaigrette. YUM!
    Thanks so much for the inspiration!
