Recipe: Mashed potato salad with parsley

Salads with aromatic herbs
December 03, 2009


As many of my readers already knows, this year I decided to celebrate Thanksgiving, even if it's not an italian tradition.
It was a success, and I think it will become our family tradition too.

I cooked for two days and after that I was too lazy to publish the recipes. Anyway, I followed a classic pattern: turkey with spiced apple sauce, green beans casserole with mushroom cream, a sweet potatoes side dish, and the apple pie with cranberries (which were very difficult to find in Italy!)

This is the easier recipe, the mashed potato salad.
