Bacon Potato Salad
This is a tasty combination of ideas I liked from several potato salad recipes. It has become an often requested item at family gatherings.
What you will need
2 1/2 lb red potatoes or other small potato
6 slices of bacon - cooked crispy & crumbled
6 hard-boiled eggs - chopped rough
1/3 cup red onion - chopped fine
1/3 cup celery - chopped fine
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup ranch dressing
2 tbsp parsley - chopped (optional but recommended)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper (could use half tsp if not a pepper fan)
How to cook
1
Put the potatoes in a pot or saucepan and add water until it is about an inch over the potatoes.
2
Bring the pot to a boil on high heat and cook until they are fork tender. About 15 - 20 minutes.
3
Drain the potatoes and let them cool.
4
After the potatoes are cool cut them in half (if your potatoes are bigger than the small red potatoes you could also cut in quarters)
5
In a bowl mix all the ingredients together gently. You do not want mashed potato salad.
6
Refrigerate salad for several hours. I recommend overnight to get the best flavor.
