  2. Drizzle the baby potatoes with olive oil, then sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Arrange on the baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until fork-tender.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked and mashed potatoes with mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Stir in chopped fresh herbs and colorful veggies.
  4. Once the roasted potatoes have cooled slightly, slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out a small portion, creating a hollow space.
  5. Spoon the potato salad mixture into the hollowed-out potato halves. Decorate with sliced radishes and finish with microgreens.
  6. Arrange the boats on pastel serving platters for an inviting display and serve fresh.
