    i made this up because i was tired of traditional potato salad, so i'm not really sure of the measurements, but it's very forgiving, so have fun with it...

    red potatoes, eyes and sprouts removed, and cut into small cubes

    1 large bunch of fresh mint, finely chopped

    dried dill to taste

    garlic powder to taste

    black pepper, to taste

    bunch of green onion, finely chopped

    1 bottle (size depends on how much you're making) of your favorite ranch dressing

    1 carton (again size depends) sour cream (makes the ranch not so ranchy!)

    2 cans garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained

    salt water very well, boil potatoes.

    when finished cooking, rinse well with cold water and drain completely

    add potatoes and all other ingredients in a bowl and mix.

    add the dressing a sour cream gradually so your salad's not too saucy!

    add more seasonings if you think it needs more...

    maybe bacon or feta cheese would be good in there too...

    anyway, this is a different twist on something that really doesn;t have much variety...i make it for barbeques and it goes pretty fast...good luck! oh yeah--you may need to add salt. i try to salt my boiling water enough so that i don't have to salt the potato salad, but potatoes have no taste without salt, so feel free to salt it to your liking!
