Bacon Ranch Potato Salad


I am not a fan of potato salad.  I know people love it.  I even have a friend that eats potato salad sandwiches (he mean't to do it)! I just don't like the cold mayonnaise and mustard covered potatoes.  All that being said, I loved this potato salad.  It uses Ranch dressing instead of of mayonnaise and has crispy bacon tossed in.  It reminded me of crack potatoes - all it needed was cheddar cheese.  I served this warm with the BBQ Chicken from yesterday's post.  It was absolutely delicious!!  I plan on making it again this weekend for Memorial Day.
