Italian potato salad is a twist on the classic picnic dish. This version ditches the mayonnaise and instead uses a zesty olive oil and garlic dressing, making it the perfect side dish for a summer barbeque. The fresh parsley adds a burst of flavor, while the white wine vinegar gives it a tangy kick. This potato salad is easy to make and can be served cold, making it a great option for large gatherings or meal prepping.

Instructions

1.	Boil the potatoes in a large pot of salted water until they are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
2.	Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool.
3.	In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic, olive oil, white wine vinegar, and parsley to make the dressing.
4.	When the potatoes are cool, gently toss them together with the dressing until they are well coated.
5.	Serve the Italian potato salad cold, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
