With grilling season in full swing, try this light and easy twist on traditional potato salad at your next cookout. It's great hot or cold!

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

FOR THE GRILLED POTATOES
2 lbs. red potatoes, whole, unpeeled
2 tbsp. olive oil
6 slices bacon, cooked, chopped
4 scallions, chopped
2 tbsp. fresh parsley, minced

FOR THE DRESSING
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tbsp. cider vinegar
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tsp. sugar

HOW YOU'LL MAKE IT

Whisk together all dressing ingredients until smooth and set aside.

Parboil the potatoes, whole and unpeeled for 15 minutes. Drain and cool slightly. Place potatoes in a bowl. Add 2 tbsp. olive oil and toss to coat evenly.

Preheat grill to medium-high and lightly oil the grates.

Grill whole potatoes for 15 minutes, or until fork tender, turning occasionally to get grill marks on both sides.

Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes; cut into quarters.

In a large bowl, toss potatoes, bacon, scallions and parsley with dressing until evenly coated. Serve hot or cold. Enjoy!
