New baby potatoes from our local market were my inspiration for this dish along with the hot and steamy summer weather. Ripe avocado adds a creaminess to the salad without
adding any mayonnaise. If you are avoiding potatoes you can substitute roasted white japanese sweet potato. Have fun with customizing with your favorite fresh herbs; dill, cilantro and tarragon are all delicious in this salad. Make ahead and enjoy with grilled veggie burger, chicken or other summer salads.
