With barbeques and family gatherings in full swing, I thought I’d take a moment to revisit a favorite recipe and share it with you today on Throwback Thursday. You may have seen it here (guest post on Livin’ & Lovin’) or here (my first week of blogging). This recipe is easy to make, creates a large batch, and many go back for seconds. This makes it perfect to bring to a gathering! Read below for what you’ll need to buy and the steps you’ll need to take to throw together this easy dish!

Ingredients:
Red Potatoes
Ranch Dressing
Bacon Pieces (salad topping size)
Cheese

I’m not listing the amount needed because that will vary depending on the number of potatoes you use. I tend to buy a bag of potatoes, bottle of Ranch, package of bacon pieces, and a bag of cheese. I always have leftovers of the other ingredients when I use the whole bag of potatoes.

Step 1: Buy your ingredients.

Step 2: Wash & dry your potatoes. 
 

Step 3: Wrap each potato in aluminum foil.

Step 4: Put the potatoes on a tray.

Step 5: Bake the potatoes at 375 degrees for one hour.

Step 6: Put potatoes in the fridge to cool for several hours. (I usually do overnight.)

Step 7: Cut each potato into small squares. (This is the most time consuming part!)

Step 8: Put your cut potatoes into the pan(s) you plan to use for serving.

Step 9: Add in ranch dressing, bacon pieces, and cheese. Stir until the salad is well coated.
 
Step 10: Serve your creation!
