To begin with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few ingredients. You can have loaded potato salad using 10 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Loaded Potato Salad:
- Make ready 2 1/2 lb (10-14) red potatoes, cut into 1" cubes
- Get 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- Take 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- Make ready 1/4 cup sour cream
- Prepare 1 lb bacon
- Prepare 1 cup shredded cheese of choice, I prefer a sharp cheddar
- Make ready 4 finely diced green onions (optional)

- Take 1 Salt
- Take 1 Pepper
Instructions to make Loaded Potato Salad:
- Place diced potatoes in a large pot add enough cold water to cover.
- Bring potatoes to a boil and boil for about 15 minutes or until tender. You want them soft but not to soft, then they turn to mush and we aren't making mashed potatoes.
- I like to set up an ice bath for my potatoes to stop the cooking process. An ice bath is when you fill a bowl with water and ice. After the potatoes are tender transfer them to the ice bath. Let them sit for about 2 minutes then remove to an empty bowl. Put the potatoes in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to an hour.
- After the potatoes are in the fridge dice the bacon and cook in a skillet on med heat until crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel to drain and set aside.
- Mix mayonnaise, ranch dressing and sour cream.
- Mix together potatoes, cheese and bacon.
- Add desired amount of dressing mixture to the potatoes, cheese and bacon. My kids prefer creamier so I usually use all the dressing mixture, some people don't.
- Use seasoning salt, salt and pepper to taste.
- When I serve mine I like to offer a bowl of extra cheese, diced green onion and diced cherry tomato for people to add as extra toppings.
