Scale
- 2 pounds red potatoes
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked bacon, chopped
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 packet ranch seasoning
- 3 tablespoons minced chives
Instructions
- Scrub the potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water, ensuring the water is about 1 inch above the potatoes.
- Bring the water to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 16-18 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes well and let them cool completely.

- Once the potatoes are cooled, add them to the bowl with the dressing. Also, add the chopped bacon and shredded cheddar cheese.
- Gently toss all the ingredients together until the potatoes are evenly coated with the dressing. Chill the potato salad in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
