This is a tasty riff on loaded fries. All the satisfaction of fries topped with bacon, cheese with a smoky and spicy ranch dressing, but in spudsy salad form. The entire dish is prepared in the Multipurpose Steamer, which means less mess and easy clean up. This is the side dish everyone will be talking about all summer long.
Toppings (optional): extra sliced green onion and shredded cheese
- Lay bacon over Multipurpose Tray in Multipurpose Steamer. Cover and microwave on high 4–5 min, or until crispy.
- Meanwhile, cube potatoes.
- Remove bacon and Multipurpose Tray from steamer. Using a paper towel, remove most of the bacon grease from the steamer. Add potatoes. Cover and microwave on high until cooked, about 8 min.
- Meanwhile, prepare dressing. In a bowl, whisk together mayo, sour cream, and dressing mix. Add milk; whisk to combine.
- Once potatoes are cooked, uncover and place in refrigerator to cool down for 5 min.
- Meanwhile, chop cooked bacon. Slice green onions.
- Once potatoes have cooled down, add dressing and bacon. Toss gently to coat. Stir in onions and cheese. Serve at room temperature or cover and chill until ready to serve. Add toppings, if desired.
Waxy potatoes are the number one choice for potato salad. Once cooked, they hold their shape, while still being soft & creamy. Besides red skinned potatoes, most of the small varieties such as fingerling, new, or medley baby potatoes are the waxy type you’re looking for.
