This picnic potato salad with no mayonnaise recipe folds in tangy blue cheese, onion, and chives at the end, which creates an exciting flavor profile.

Ingredients

2 pounds small new potatoes, quartered
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
