Feta Mint and Potato Salad with a Herb Mustard Dressing

As it is only me and paulie in the house (apart from 2 fur babies) if we have new potatoes for dinner we don’t eat a whole bag. I cook all of them and use them in salads. This salad was yummy and really summery. I love feta and mint together, the flavours work so well. The dressing was a nice store cupboard dressing and the mint was in the garden. I had frozen the feta and took it out the night before. This tasted very Mediterranean.

Ingredients (serves 2)

For the Salad
  • Block of feta
  • 2 tbsp fresh mint, leaves only roughly chopped
  • 6 cooked new potatoes, quartered if medium or halved if small
  • 6 olives, sliced

  • Small bag of salad leaves
