Thank you Potatoes USA for sponsoring this post. Make a delicious and convenient meal for your family tonight with potatoes!

I don’t know about you, but we’ve had unseasonably warm weather here in MN lately. 70’s and sunny in the middle of October? I’ll take it, especially since snowflakes are appearing in the weather forecast soon!

We’ve been soaking in as much of the nice weather as possible, hiking, going for long bike rides, and grilling. Though we grill almost all year round, it’s nice to be able to not freeze while you’re outside grilling!

This grilled lemony dill potato salad was a recent addition to our grilled meals, and we love it. With lots of fresh lemon and dill, this potato salad is a delicious (and easy!) alternative to your traditional potato salads!

The base of this grilled potato salad is a few pounds of yellow potatoes from Potatoes USA. With a velvety and slightly waxy texture, yellow potatoes are great for grilling.

They get a crispy skin that enhances the dense, creamy flesh and creates a slightly sweet, caramelized flavor! (They’re also great for roasting when there’s too much snow on the ground to grill!)

We usually have at least one variety of potato in our pantry. They’re an inexpensive food to keep on hand and pair well with so many flavors. You can use them in a side dish for just about any meal or turn them into a main dish!

These yellow potatoes are sliced thin, seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, and grilled until nice and golden.

A simple dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, fresh lemon zest and dill, and a pinch of salt is drizzled over the top of the grilled potatoes. Toss to coat and top with additional fresh lemon zest right before serving.

Easy, flavorful, inexpensive, and a great way to hang onto these last few warm days of autumn!
