Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds russet potatoes (, about 6 medium-size)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
8 slices bacon (, cooked and chopped)
5 green onions (, chopped)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
salt and freshly ground black pepper (, to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Wash potatoes and prick them with a fork or knife.
  • Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour or until they are fork tender. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
  • At this point you can peel all of them, or peel half of them and leave the skin on the other half to get a real baked potato feel. Cut the potatoes into small, pieces.
  • Combine the sour cream and mayonnaise in a bowl and stir well.
  • Add the potatoes to a large serving bowl. Season well with salt and pepper. Add the sauce (just enough to coat them well--you may not use it all) and gently stir to coat.
  • Add most of the bacon, onion and cheese, reserving some for topping at the end, and gently stir to combine.

Loaded Baked Potato Salad image

Baked potatoes, crispy bacon and sharp Cheddar are tossed in a tangy sour cream dressing to create the ultimate summery potato salad that tastes exactly like the loaded winter favorite. Bake and cool the potatoes the night before to make day-of prep even easier.

Provided by Food Network

Time 3h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings (about 8 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 small russet potatoes (about 3 pounds)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 slices bacon
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
6 ounces sharp Cheddar, cut into 1/3-inch cubes (about the size of a pea)
2 scallions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated

Steps:

  • Position 2 racks in the center of the oven, and preheat to 375 degrees F. Thoroughly wash and dry the potatoes, then prick each all over 8 to 10 times with a fork. Rub the butter evenly on the potatoes, and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet with at least 1 inch of space between them.
  • Put the bacon in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Place both baking sheets in the oven, the bacon below the potatoes. Cook the bacon, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy, 18 to 20 minutes; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate, let cool and then crumble. Bake the potatoes, flipping halfway through, until the skin is crispy and a small knife inserted in the center goes in and out without any resistance, 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a cutting board and let cool completely, about 2 hours; quarter each cooled potato lengthwise, then cut into 1-inch pieces.
  • Whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons water and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the potatoes, bacon, Cheddar and white parts of the scallions, and gently stir to combine. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  • Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with the scallion greens right before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for baked potato salad, as they hold their shape well and have a fluffy texture when baked.
  • Bake the potatoes thoroughly: Make sure the potatoes are cooked all the way through before assembling the salad. You can test this by piercing the potatoes with a fork - they should be tender and easily pierced.
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly: Allow the potatoes to cool for a few minutes before handling them, as they will be very hot. This will also help prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The beauty of loaded baked potato salad is that you can customize it to your liking. Some popular toppings include bacon, cheese, sour cream, chives, and green onions.
  • Serve immediately: Baked potato salad is best served immediately, while the potatoes are still warm and fluffy. You can also make it ahead of time and refrigerate it, but it's best to bring it to room temperature before serving.

Conclusion:

Loaded baked potato salad is a delicious and versatile dish that is perfect for any occasion.
