Potato Salad With Pesto and Asparagus image

This is a wonderful, different twist on potato salad! I love the flavors of the red potatoes, asparagus, and pesto mayonnaise! What a great combination! This goes great with grilled chicken, sandwiches, or tortilla wraps. I could eat this stuff every day!
