Ingredients

  • 2 pounds small red potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons imitation bacon bits
  • 2/3 cup fat-free Italian salad dressing
  • 2 packets of Splenda (or other artificial sweetener)
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup chopped parsley

Directions

Leave skins on potatoes. Place potatoes in a medium saucepan and add enough cool water to cover them by at least an inch of water. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes can be pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain and cool. Quarter the potatoes when cool enough to touch. Combine bacon bits, salad dressing, Splenda, vinegar, and parsley in a medium-size bowl. Toss potato pieces in bowl with dressing to coat. Serve warm or chilled.

Yield: 3 cups. Serving size: 1/2 cup.
