Potato salad with a southwestern kick...the perfect partner for grilled flank steak or chicken...and maybe some Margaritas! Just make sure you don't touch your eyes with hands that have been preparing these peppers!

Wow, Conner - this sounds like one kick-booty potato salad. I'm jonesing to try this as I love potato salad anyway...but dressing it up roasted poblanos, tomatillos, cumin, lime juice and cilantro? Come to momma.... =) Great post - thanks!


Luny said it all, nice post, thanks


Wow, once again I accidentally put this in the Diabetic group....think that Group section has to be revamped.


Great post. yummy.


This is almost like the Salad version of a Pablano Potato soup I make. I can already taste the flavors going on here... thanks.. Jim


Looks delicious


I love grilled flank steak with a marinade of fresh lime & orange juice, soy, garlic, cumin, a little fresh rosemary, salt, pepper, splash of oil. This salad would be a perfect side.

oh, I can't wait for summer already!
