Lime And Pepper Potato Salad


A zippy potato salad that has south american roots. I changed this recipe to have a few less calories than the original recipe and i also used canned chipotle peppers with the sauce (cut back the amount if you don't like super spicy). It's really yummy and perfect for a hot summer night! Posted for zwt4.
