Bacon Kale Potatoe Salad
My blog is a collection of recipes I make for
my family. I am always experimenting, so
recipes range from good old home style
cooking to trying my hand at gourmet meals.
My late Grandmother inspired me greatly,
she was a lady of simple means that lived on
the farm, grew an enormous garden, baked
the most delicious bread and grew the most
beautiful flowers.
When my son moved away from home to attend University he encouraged me to start
blogging so he would have an online recipe
book to learn how to cook for himself.
I came up with the name for my blog from
combining two of my passions - cooking and
painting. I have a studio in my house that in
addition to being my sanctuary for painting
has also become my photo studio and a
storage place for my ever growing collection
of food props!
2 lbs baby new potatoes
1 cup fresh cooked corn
6-10 slices bacon
1 bunch fresh Kale chopped (3 cups, rib
center removed)
2 cloves garlic (roasted)
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 cup red onion diced
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp fresh dill

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Cut potatoes into bite
size pieces. In large bowl, toss together
potatoes and olive oil. Spread potatoes and
garlic cloves (unpeeled) on to cookie sheet
lined with foil. Bake 30 minutes or until tender,
stirring occasionally to brown all sides.
While potatoes are baking fry bacon until
crisp, cut into pieces.
In separate skillet melt butter, add kale and
cook over medium heat until kale is tender
and turns vibrant green.
In medium size bowl mix together, parmesan
cheese, red onion, mayonnaise, sour cream,
lemon juice, fresh dill; cover and refrigerate
until potatoes are done.
When potatoes and garlic are done, remove
skin from garlic, mash and stir into dressing.
In large bowl combine together potatoes,
corn, bacon and kale. Season with salt and
fresh ground pepper.
