Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, approximately 8-10 minutes.

02

Step
15 mins

While the potatoes are cooking, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the diced bacon until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

03

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, combine the chopped olives, diced celery, sliced radishes, and sliced green onions.

04

Step
2 mins

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them well and add them to the bowl with the vegetables. Add the cooked bacon.

05

Step
3 mins

Gently stir in the mayonnaise and lemon juice. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

06

Step
1 hrs

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. This will also help the salad to chill thoroughly.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the dressing.
Feel free to adjust the amount of mayonnaise and lemon juice to your liking. Some prefer a creamier salad, while others prefer a tangier one.
This salad is best served cold. It can be made a day ahead of time, allowing the flavors to develop even further.
If you don't have Yukon Gold potatoes, red potatoes or fingerling potatoes also work well in this recipe.
