Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ pounds small yellow potatoes, unpeeled
- 1 (15-ounce) can beans (i.e. garbanzo, kidney, cannellini, red), rinsed, drained
- ½ cup olives, pitted, drained
- ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, sliced
- 2 tablespoon capers, rinsed, drained
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

- Add olive oil, vinegar, parsley, oregano, and black pepper and mix to distribute ingredients.
- Serve slightly warm or chill until serving time.
