Grilling this summer? Well no summer cookout is complete without a big bowl of heaping potato salad. Everyone loves potato salad. In my family the potato salad is always the first dish to be gobbled up. This summer, I’ve decided to give my favorite recipe a spicy new twist with chipotles.

I added finely diced chipotles to the mayonnaise base and added a sprinkle of cumin that gives this salad a boost of Latin flavor. Serve alongside a big, juicy burger or grilled chicken this chipotle potato salad is sure to be the hit of your family cookout, you might want to make a double batch.
