Red Potato Salad

This is a favorite salad with everyone and enjoyed any time of the year.  This recipe has all of the goodies and then some more.

Red Potato Salad

  • 2 lb. small red potatoes, halved or quartered depending on the size
  • 1/2 lb. bacon or more, cooked until crisp and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise (I used low-fat for the mayo, caesar and ranch dressing and sour cream)
  • 1/4 cup creamy Caesar salad dressing
  • 1/4 cup Ranch dressing
  • 3 tbsp. sour cream
  • 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • green onions, chopped
  • sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Cut the potatoes and place in boiling water in a large saucepan; cover and cook for about 10 minutes or so. If a knife poked in them does not stick the potatoes are done. Drain well and cut into smaller pieces if desired.

Place the potatoes in a large serving bowl.Combine the mayonnaise, 2 dressings, sour cream and mustard in a small bowl. Pour over potatoes; add green onions, crumbled bacon and cheese;  toss gently to coat.

  1. Between the bacon and your delicious sounding dressing, there’s no doubt in my mind that this is an “ordinary” potato salad… Looks outstanding, Judi!

  2. This looks like a great salad and one can simply never have too many potato salads!! 🙂 I’m always looking for one that’s new and exciting and this has it all! Thanks for hosting for us on Fiesta Friday this week!

    • I agree Mollie – I love potato salads too much and they love me right back 🙂 I like the combination of dressings versus just the Ranch that is often used. I am having a great time – rather quiet party this week so far 🙂

      • Throwback Thursday, too. (We’d love to have you link up there, too, btw…had to put in a plug!) I think everyone is getting their vacations in! 🙂
        I’m not super keen on Ranch. My kids love it but me not so much. So I really liked the Caeser idea in this with just a little Ranch for the herbiness.

  3. I have never added bacon to my potato salad and reading your recipe I am wondering why!! It looks absolutely delicious 🙂 Happy FF! x

      • That is a great idea and I think a bit of bacon makes so much taste a little better! I will absolutely do this next time! 🙂
