- You can wash your potatoes, poke the skin and cook them in the microwave: it will be faster.
- You can use a very good balsamic glaze, instead of a regular balsamic vinegar.
- Don't throw away parsley stems: freeze them and use in a broth or a soup at a later time.
- You can add minced garlic to your dressing, if you like it.
