NEW POTATOES WITH 5-MINUTE MINT PESTO
This 5-minute mint pesto comes together in no time and perks up new spring potatoes, pasta, turkey sandwiches and even scrambled eggs. I like my pesto chunky, so this recipe uses less oil than most -- and lots of herbs. Mint is a powerhouse of flavor, so it's balanced by quite a lot of fresh parsley and tangy, salty Parmesan.

Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a medium pot and add cold water to cover; bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium and cook until barely fork-tender, 12 minutes. Drain.
- Meanwhile, put the parsley, mint, pistachios, oil, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor and process until finely minced (see Cook's Note). Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the Parmesan until blended.
- Toss the pesto with the warm or room-temperature potatoes and serve.
