This potato salad is one of my favorite spring-summer salads. The combination of potatoes and basil is just perfect and I often make this salad at home. 

Potatoes are an excellent source of B6, a vitamin that is essential for the formation of almost every new cell in the body. Potatoes are also known to be good for promoting cardiovascular health and are highly beneficial for reducing the risk of heart attack, stroke, atherosclerosis, and COPD.
