About

No barbecue would be complete without potato salad. One day, short on regular potatoes, my wife, Barbara, made this two-tone salad using sweet and baking potatoes. The result was so colorful and tasty we’ve made it a family standby. You’ll be amazed by how much flavor the olives and capers add. If you wish to make a conventional potato salad, use all baking potatoes.
