TARPON SPRINGS GREEK SALAD WITH POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Make the potato salad. Place the potatoes in a large stockpan and cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cook until potatoes are just tender. Remove and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking.
• Halve the cooled potatoes and place in a large bowl along with scallions and chopped hard-boiled eggs. Whisk together the greek yogurt, mustard, vinegar, salt/pepper and mayo. Season to taste, then toss with the potatoes. Spread potato salad in a large salad serving dish and set aside.
• Whisk together the ingredients for the greek dressing. Season to taste, adding more salt/pepper if needed and set aside.
• Toss together the romaine lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, olives and peppers. Toss with 3 tablespoons of the dressing and toss well. Stir in the feta cheese, then top the salad over the potato salad. Drizzle with remaining salad dressing (you may not need all of it) and serve immediately.
• Dish this out by scooping into the salad, grabbing the potato salad at the bottom and the salad on top.
