Summer Snack Series: Spicy Red Bliss Potato Salad

redbliss1

We're big fans of potato salad in my house.
With Matt being allergic to wheat, I am keenly aware of just how often pasta salad is the staple side at summer barbecues. And while I love me some pasta, in any form, I try my best when I cook at home to include my gluten-free-refugee-fiancé (just rolls off the tongue, no?)

This has resulted in the quest for the ultimate potato salad all summer long. I love different variations using produce like corn or, here, radishes and peppers. The jalapeños are from our garden, which makes it even closer to my heart.

The cilantro-mayo-yogurt combo on this is an unexpected pleasant surprise. Bring along to your next cookout--your gluten-free friends will thank you.

  • Stir to evenly incorporate, add salt and pepper (and some Adobo!) to taste
