This herb potato salad can be adapted to each season. Use fresh chives in the spring, basil and parsley in the summer, and fresh rosemary and thyme in the fall. In the winter, substitute any dried herbs you have on hand. Two tablespoons will give you the same effect. If you are using fresh herbs, be sure to stuff your 1/2 cup full. Although it seems like a lot, the more the better to really pack a punch of flavor and nutrition.
