Chipotle Ranch Potato Salad
Quick and easy potato salad that can be made in an hour and will be a hit at any BBQ or get together. Not overly creamy, a few ingredients, and tastes way more complex than you would expect! I grow green onions for myself, but have also bought them at the Hardin County Farmers Market from Solway Farms and Modern Heritage Farms. The other ingredients, I bought at Kroger, but with the exception of the chipotle ranch dressing, you can also find potatoes and bacon locally depending on the time of the year.
Ingredients:
48 ounces small potatoes
1/2 a package of bacon
Small bunch of green onions
Approximately 1/2 a cup of chipotle ranch dressing
Salt and Pepper to taste
Place whole potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to gently boil for 20 minutes. While potatoes are cooking, half fill a large container with water and ice. Once potatoes are done, drain and transfer potatoes to the cold water. Let sit until cool enough to handle. Once cool enough (I usually give them 10 minutes), quarter potatoes.
Dice bacon and cook to desired crispness. Remove from heat and set aside.
Chop green onions.
Combine quartered potatoes, bacon, green onions, chipotle ranch dressing, and salt and pepper in a large bowl and toss to coat.
Transfer to a 2.5 quart container and chill in fridge or serve immediately.
