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
- 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.
- 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.
- Transfer the cooled potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add the ranch, cheddar, bacon and green onions, then toss until everything is coated.
- 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.
