Salad: Bacon Ranch Potato Salad

Filed under: salad - bonz @ 10:34 pm

i like potatoes and i like bacon as well… saw this recipe at easy salad recipes and i hope this tastes good as well as it looks yummy… lolz
This easy salad is made with ranch dressing added to mayonnaise, and crispy bits of bacon. You can use any version of Ranch dressing such as bacon, peppercorn and 3-cheese.
You can always substitute the bacon with pre-made bacon bits as well.

Ingredients:

6-8 potatoes
6-8 slices of bacon
1/2 bell pepper-any colour-chopped
3-4 green onion-chopped
1 celery stick-chopped
1-2 cloves minced garlic
salt & pepper to taste

Dressing:

1/2 cup mayonnaise or miracle whip
1/4 cup ranch dressing

Peel, slice and boil potatoes until cooked. Drain water and let cool.

Cook bacon until crispy, drain grease and let cool.

When potatoes are cool, put them in a large pot or bowl. Take a knife and cut potato into small pieces, about 1/2 to 1 inch in size.

Crumble cooled bacon and add to bowl.

Add chopped vegetables, salt & pepper, and dressing.

Mix all ingredients. Taste salad and add more Ranch dressing or salt if it needs more flavour.

Cool in refrigerator 1-2 hours before serving.
