Classic summer barbecue side dish made with fantastic flavorful additions. Soft yellow potatoes are mixed with lots of roasted garlic and some Asiago cheese.

POTATO SALAD

The whole time we lived in our apartment, we dreamed about having a house for many reasons, and one of the biggest reasons was barbecuing. My husband grew up barbecuing with his family and I’ve always had so much fun at the barbecue parties. We couldn’t wait to be the ones to throw the parties. Now, we finally have a house and it’s been six months before we even had our first bbq party.

I never realized how hard it is to gather a bunch of people together in one place, at the same time. What makes it especially hard is having several friends that are in the restaurant industry. Getting their schedules together is like trying to get a doctor’s appointment. “Ummm…let me see…yeap, next free day I have is 5 weeks from now.” And then, try to coordinate one date among all those people. Sigh! I miss the whole “9 to 5” weekday work schedule that I’ve heard people have.

Somehow, I pulled off getting some family and friends together for a little bbq party last week. A little grilling, a little cooking, a lot of talking and having some fun. Of course, I wanted to make some classics dishes but my own way. Our favorite classic barbecue side dish is a potato salad. You just can’t have a bbq party or any kind of a cookout without a potato salad.

Roasted garlic rocks, don’t you agree?! Roasted garlic and potatoes make a such a nice pair together. Really, roasted garlic is great with everything and especially this potatoes salad. Why? Because it has a great compliment of Asiago cheese in it.

Asiago enhances the flavors of roasted garlic and adds a nice sharp cheesy flavor to the potato salad. At first, I was concerned that it might be a little overpowering, but seeing how fast people inhaled it, took all my concerned away. Hubs and everyone else loved the salad, he even begged me to make it again the next day.

It’s now a new favorite potato salad here and I hope it will become yours too!

    I love the Asiago and roasted garlic combination. Of course those ingredients will always be found in our house. We go into panic mode when we get low. We actually ran out of garlic one day last week — we were cooking a lot. We made a store run “just in case” we would need it. I’m glad you finally got your bbq. Have a great day!

      Oh gosh, I remember a day when I ran out of garlic, disaster! It was even worse when the three grocery stores had sub-par garlic. I hate it when stores don’t restock fresh garlic and just leave shriveled, brown ones laying there. Grr.
      I hope you will enjoy the potato salad, Marisa 🙂
