Preparation

Potato Salad

2. In a medium bowl, combine the diced red onion, celery, olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Stir until all of the ingredients are well combined.

3. Add the cooked potatoes to the bowl with the dressing and stir until all of the potatoes are evenly coated. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Vegetable Stir-Fry

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.

2. Add the bell peppers, mushrooms, and carrots and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

3. In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable broth, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Pour the mixture into the skillet and stir until everything is well combined.

4. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve warm.
