Slice potatoes and cook in microwave. Add snap peas last few minutes of cooking. Voila! No burning fingers on hot potatoes or adding heat and humidity to the house during hot weather, when you are most likely to be making this dish.

I made a lot of changes based on what I had and it still turned out great! 1. russet potatoes instead of red, and left skin on 2. dill, garlic salt, onion powder instead of parsley/chevril 3. avocado oil instead of vegetable/peanut 4. i used shallots easy recipe and works with lots of variations

A really delicious salad! I will definitely make again. The snap peas were a delightful contrast to the red potatoes, and the vinaigrette was perfect, just tangy enough with a hint of sweetness. The only thing I'd change was the amount of shallot. They were VERY strong and overwhelming. I'd use them, but much less.
