Ingredients
Directions
Boil the potatoes: Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the potatoes and cook until fork tender, about 7 minutes. Drain and allow to cool.
While the potatoes are cooking, assemble the remaining ingredients: Add the watercress, apples, walnuts, red onion, radish, and cranberries to a large bowl.
If you haven’t made the dressing yet, make the Sweet Mustard Dressing.
Once the potatoes have cooled, add them to the salad, pour the desired amount of dressing over top, and toss to combine.
Divide watercress salad between bowls and add optional crushed black pepper.
