This potato asparagus avocado salad is light and fresh but still hearty enough to make an excellent work lunch. I love the creaminess of the avocado and the zestiness of the dressing not to mention the crunch of the pumpkin seeds. Obviously it goes without saying I love the potatoes!

I think this salad is going to be making an appearance at BBQs and picnics all summer long. I have a feeling my friends won’t be complaining about that fact either! It works best with small new potatoes, but really you can make it work with whatever potatoes you have on hand. Personally, I can’t wait to get some more from my mum’s garden!
