Ingredients

  • 2 pounds red potatoes, cut into bite-size pieces

  • 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream

  • 1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix

  • 1 ¼ cups cooked bacon, crumbled

  • 1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese

  • 2 bunches green onions, thinly sliced

Directions

  1. Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover 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 under cold water until cool.

  2. Combine the sour cream and ranch dressing mix in a small bowl until well-blended. Transfer the potatoes, bacon, Cheddar cheese, and green onions to a large bowl. Stir in the sour cream mixture until well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours before serving.

Cook's Note

Leaving the potato skins on is optional.
