Happy Fourth of July! I hope everyone gets to see some fireworks today and enjoy the outdoors. I will be spending most of my day at the lab, but plan to catch some festivities after work.

In case you are like me and need something quick to whip up for a party later today, these potatoes are for you. Just boil some baby potatoes and toss with corn, tomatoes, cilantro and some other seasonings and you have the perfect side dish to go along with BBQ and grilled meats.

When I first made these baby potatoes with tomato corn saute, it was served with some sliced sausage which I threw on top for the original photo at the bottom of this post. But I have since also served it with grilled BBQ chicken as seen in the updated photos.
