Summer Potluck Potato Salad
Summer Potluck Potato Salad

This is a perfect make ahead meal, that can be brought to a potluck, bbq, picnic or just eaten at your own leisure. It actually tastes better on day 2, once the potatoes have really absorbed the dressing and flavours. It’s not as creamy as a traditional potato salad, a little more on the tangy side.

Gin + Watermelon + Rose Water Refresher

Beet Dyed Deviled Eggs
Beet Dyed Deviled Eggs

Never boil a hard “boiled” egg again! The trick for easy peeling and avoiding that grey ring from overcooking is to steam them. I think the pink dyed outside really elevates this retro appetizer but if you are short on time the classic recipe without the beets tastes just as great.
