I love the green chilies in this Mexican Potato Salad. It adds a little peppery taste and gives this salad a little kick.

I love a good potato salad when I am grilling. And this Mexican Potato Salad is a great substitute for the classic potato salad.
If you own a pressure cooker (Instant Pot) and want to use it to make the Hard Boiled Eggs needed for this recipe, check out this helpful tutorial I published Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs. If you prefer to make them the old fashioned way, check out my tutorial on How to Make Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs.
While this potato salad is awesome as-is, if you love green chilies or simply want more of a kick from this potato salad, I recommend doubling the amount of green chilies. While my wife found it just right I could've used just a tad more.
