Grilled Potato Salad is the only way you should have potato salad. You can quote me on that, and I will argue with anyone who says otherwise. With summer grilling season around the corner, it’s time to take advantage of that grill!
The post is in partnership with The New Primal.
I will be the first to admit that I was not a fan of any kind of potato salad –grilled or not. I quickly learned that was because I was consuming mayo heavy unseasoned potato salad. So I wrote it off for a very long time.
Recently I had potato salad that didn’t have an mayo in it whatsoever and it was packed with flavor. Besides not having mayo, I LOVED that the potatoes were grilled and had a smoky charry (is this even a real word? LOL) taste to it. It was seasoned perfectly, and I would have been happy having it as the main dish.
There are two key elements to this Grilled Potato Salad: 1. you absolutely need to grill your lemon. It just adds so much flavor, it’s unreal. Trust me and just do it. 2. The New Primal Noble Made Citrus Zest Dressing is the perfect sauce for this recipe.
Why The New Primal Noble Made Citrus Zest Dressing?
- It’s called Citrus Zest but has a strong mustard base to it. When I think of potato salad, I always think of having some element of mustard in the recipe. This dressing is perfect for that!
- The dressing works so perfectly with the other ingredients. It isn’t overpowering and really helps bring everything together.
- It’s Whole30 approved which means real food ingredients!
I hope you enjoy this grilled potato salad as much as I do! I’m pretty sure it’s going to be the best summer side dish you bring to your next barbecue!
