Ingredients
- 3 pounds red potatoes cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 ounce packet ranch dressing mix
- 1 ½ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
- 1 pound bacon
- ½ cup thinly sliced green onions
- ½ red onion chopped
- ½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Place chopped potatoes in a large pot of salted cold water and bring to a boil. Boil potatoes for ten minutes or until fork tender. Then drain, and rinse under cold water to cool.
- While potatoes are boiling, place bacon in a large skillet and fry over medium-high heat, until bacon is crispy. Then place the strips of bacon on a paper towel to drain, and crumble into small pieces once the bacon is cool enough to handle.
