spicy potato salad-2

Sometimes I just want a different type of salad when I’m having a bbq (which is year round in California, just being honest here). Potato salad is always a hit in this house but I can never live up to my Mother In Law’s salad according to my husband. That’s totally cool, I don’t try to replicate, I just make something different.

And this potato salad is different. Bonus, you can leave it out at a picnic, no mayo! And not very much oil to make up for it. The consensus was “THIS ROCKS!” and leftovers got eaten even if it isn’t very photogenic. It’s a nice change from a creamy or oily potato salad with no oomph. The spices are to taste so if your family likes it a bit hotter, adjust your hot sauce and spices. It’s all up to you! I measured to give you a gauge and this was rated above the burgers among the meat eaters.
