Recipe:

Step 1: Place the potatoes in a roasting pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Roast for 20 minutes in a preheated oven, or until the potatoes are fork tender.

Step 2: When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into bite-sized pieces and place in a salad bowl.

Step 3: Add the beans, capers, olives, scallions, fresh herbs and feta cheese to the salad bowl.

Step 4: Whisk the dressing ingredients together in a small mixing bowl. Toss the salad with the dressing. Let the salad sit for at least one hour before serving.
