Don't just think of this as summer picnic fare! I was making roasted salmon and roasted asparagus and wanted something that was a little sauce-y. Perfect choice. Company adored it. I'd change the ratio of vinegar to olive oil (less vinegar) & don't think you can go wrong with any favorite mustardy vinaigrette. Next time I'd add the parsley last, as I tossed the potatoes so it's bright green & hasn't been heated. A new favorite side, for sure.
