June has arrived with the sunny days and summer fun.
One of my favorite side dishes during the season is the Fresh Potato Salad.
You can make as many different variations of it as you can imagine, and each time it is delicious and the colors on the plate just lovely! 

This time I had a jalapeño salsa chicken breasts with it. The salsa was hot and went well with a salad on the side. An easy and fast mean to make and serve during the season. I baked the chicken in the oven, seasoned with salt and pepper and the salsa on the top. 
The leftovers from the chicken were tasty the day after on the side of a green salad, eaten cold or heated up, your choice.
