Loaded Baked Potato Salad

We love barbecue season and we’re all about it! We’re ready for all the things, summer barbecues, warm weather, and swimming! Loaded baked potato salad is the perfect barbecue side.

Yesterday was Easter and the go-to side is always potato salad so we decided that we should jazz it up a little bit. What goes better with loaded potatoes than Ranch, I’ll tell you, nothing. We love ranch! Give this awesome recipe a try!

Ingredients

2 pounds of red potatoes cut into bite-size pieces
1 (16 oz) container Sour Cream
1 (1 oz) package Buttermilk Ranch dressing mix
1 1/2 cups Bacon cut
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
4 stalks of Green Onions
3 stalks of celery

Directions

1. Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover them with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain then run cold water over the potatoes until they are cool.
2. Combine sour cream and ranch mix in a small bowl. Transfer the potatoes, bacon, cheddar cheese, and green onions into a large bowl. Fold in the sour cream mixture until everything is coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. The longer you refrigerate the better it is.
