If you were raised in America, you may never have heard of Russian Potato Salad. If you try it let me know what you think of it.

Russian Potato Salad

1# thin skinned potatoes
Caper dressing*
2 medium apples unpeeled
3 medium sized carrots thinly sliced
1 small red onion chopped
1 medium green pepper, seeded cut into strips
1 can (1#) pickled beets, drained and diced

Boil potatoes until just tender when pierced 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile prepare Caper Dressing.

*Stir together:
1/2 cup of oil,
3 Tbsp each: white wine vinegar and capers.
2 tsp of honey, (or Splenda),
1 tsp. each: dry mustard and salt,
1/2 tsp dill weed
1/4 tsp. each: pepper and paprika

Drain potatoes, cool, peel and dice directly into dressing. Also dice apples into dressing (prevents browning). Add carrots, onion, green pepper, and beets. Stir lightly. Cover and refrigerate for 6 hours or until next day. Enjoy!
