Now, I'm not a fan of mild cheese, I much prefer extra matured Cheddar, but Red Leicester has a place here as it adds colour which can only be a good thing. That said, cheese in my opinion is always a good thing so why not add it to potato salad!
Simple to make in just minutes and perfect outdoor eating; great for picnics or as a side for BBQ's. Or indeed whenever you feel the need for potato salad!
There's little point in giving a proper recipe since there's no such thing as 'proper' just add as much or little of the following as it depends on how many you're serving and how greedy everyone is!

Pimped Potato Salad
There's little point in giving a proper recipe since there's no such thing as 'proper' just add as much or little of the following as it depends on how many you're serving and how greedy everyone is!
ingredients:
Cooked but cold new potatoes, halved or quartered depending on their size
Spring onions - thinly sliced
Chives - snipped with scissors
Cheddar and Red Leicester Cheese
Mayonnaise
French's Classic Yellow Mustard - Spicy (with cayenne)
instructions
Put the potatoes into a bowl and add mayonnaise along with a squeeze of the mustard - don't worry it isn't really hot; have a taste first though.
Now add the potatoes, cheese, spring onions and chives and gently mix together.
Serve straight away.

Oh I do like the idea of cheese in a potato salad! And what a good way of using a ready made flavoured mustard, clever!
