Cause nobody has time for any kind of food complications the day of. Or actually anytime!

So why not prepare a big bowl of this Garden Salsa Potato Salad the day before and have one less thing to worry about.

Salsa has always been a favorite in my house, along with potato salad.

My children were never really a big fan of tomatoes but always wanted me to make salsa.

Go figure that out..but anyway I just rolled with it and kept making the salsa.

And with that in mind I thought I really needed to find a way to marry the two together.

By George, salsa and potatoes together are just the perfect companions. Haha!

But seriously give this one a go, and make sure to use fresh salsa.

You could use the jarred stuff but not sure it would be as flavorful. Cause fresh is just always better!
