Potato and Zucchini Salad with Dill
Last week while in Marksbury Farm Market, I saw some local zucchini begging me to buy it. Strange since I'm not zucchini's biggest fan. It must have known that I needed to branch out and continue trying it, and somehow it ended up in my shopping bag. When I got home, however, I wasn't really sure what to do with it. We had decided to grill that night, and I just love potato salad when grilling, so I thought I'd throw together what I had on hand into a potato and zucchini salad. It was a hit...even with my potato-salad-averse husband. This salad is really very simple and could be extremely versatile. You could try throwing in some other veggies, but if you get a talking zucchini like I did, it might get a little envious. ;-)

I hated zucchini until I started growing it (and now, because of all the wonderful farmers' markets, I no longer have to!), so I totally understand your ambivalence. Nice idea here with the potatoes.
What a great idea to add zucchini to potato salad! Looks delish!
I love zucchini! I didn't start liking it until a few years ago, but now I love it! This looks great!
Did you cook the zucchini or was it raw? I guess it was raw, but just want to clarify! Sounds yummy topped off with dill. :)
@Genomicmouse, the zucchini was raw, but I'd imagine it would be tasty grilled as well! :-)
Looks perfect to serve at a brunch or outdoor party. Thanks for sharing!
I love potato salad! This version looks SO good!!
Rapid maturation and increasing the amount of information of Chinese consumers, luxury and classic replica Prada big basic models with Chinese consumers a few years ago ended the honeymoon period.

Reported fiscal year 2013 Asia-Pacific revenues rose to 11.4 percent, well below the 32.9 percent the previous year. It is understood that, with the advent of LOGO to age, many brands have begun to break the classic models, in order to meet the needs of consumers and innovation. LV, Prada replica bags, GUCCI have introduced a series of products and weakening LOGO. Brand lower profile, go shopping psychology of consumer behavior for all to see. Prada turned to see in terms of design, but stalled, marked by many high-end consumers lack novelty label.Diversification has become today's buzzword businesses and brands, how to blaze a blue ocean in the competitive moment, many brands in the hands of the product, market, promote the diversification strategy. LV Group to develop the watch business, BV began to plan the development of jewelry, fragrances and other categories, the brand began to seek diversified development process intensified, however Prada but as a spectator, a wait and see situation.
