Creamy Dijon Dressing:

Place all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until well blended.

Pan Fried Onions & Peppers:

Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add olive oil and wait until it shimmers. Add onions and peppers and sauté until tips are crispy and onions and peppers are tender; approximately 6-8 minutes.

Lemon Herb Fingerling Potatoes:

Preheat oven to 400F. In a large bowl, add olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Add potatoes and toss until evenly coated. Place coated potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet cut side down. Bake for 40 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender. Remove from oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
