Cheddar Bacon Ranch Potato Salad

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs petite red potatoes, diced into bite size chunks, about 1-inch
  • 2/3 cup Hidden Valley® Simply Ranch Dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled, about 1/2 cup
  • 1/3 cup chopped green onions
  • Salt and pepper, optional

Directions

  1. Place the potatoes in a pot and add enough water to come above them by about 2-inches. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then turn the heat down to medium and continue boiling until the potatoes are tender all the way through, about 10 minutes.
  2. Tip the potatoes carefully into a colander and let them drain. Put them aside until cool, or rinse them under cold water to move things along.
  3. Transfer the cooled potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add the ranch, cheddar, bacon and green onions, then toss until everything is coated.
  4. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve right away, or cover and refrigerate up to 1 day. If crisp bacon is the goal, hold it back and stir it in just before serving.
