Potato salad with grilled vegetables

To be honest I normally make this potato salad with pre-roasted or grilled vegetables.  I serve it at weekend BBQs with grilled fish /meat or  just have it for lunch during the week.  You can make the potato salad with roasted vegetables or grilled vegetables from scratch for a vegan meal or side dish.
