Antipasto Red Potato Salad

If your looking for a good potato salad here it is.
This salad will get you rave reviews, it's so good.
I find it helps if you refrigerate the cooked potatoes
for an hour before putting this salad together.

Ingredients:
1 or 2 lbs small red bliss potatoes
1/2 cup Italian dressing
1 medium sweet red pepper, cored, seeded and diced
15 oz can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
1/2 lb sliced smoked turkey, cut into small pieces
1/2 lb mozzarella cheese, diced
2.5 oz can sliced black olives, drained
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup fresh Italian parsley, chopped,
plus several sprigs for garnish
1/2 tsp salt or to taste
1/2 tsp hot red pepper flakes
2 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges

Directions:
Bring 6 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan.
Add potatoes and simmer over low heat until a sharp
knife slides through center of a potato, about 20 minutes.
Drain and let cool slightly. Cut warm potatoes
into bite-size pieces and place in large bowl.
Toss with dressing; let cool completely.
Add sweet red pepper, artichoke hearts, smoked turkey,
mozzarella cheese, olives, mayonnaise, parsley,
salt and red pepper flakes to potatoes.
Gently toss to combine.
Serve potato salad garnished with
tomato wedges and parsley sprigs.
