Very yummy. I prefer sour cream mixed with ranch dressing mix, so its a little thicker. Also I added green onions, but either way very good.

I’ve made this a few times with rave reviews. I am embarrassed to tell people the recipe because of how easy it is to make! I cut the potatoes before I cook them and use fresh bacon. Love this recipe!

Just made this last night and it was DELICIOUS! I did add some celery and onion but I'm sure it would be just as good w/o it. Will be making this again soon!

This is a delicious twist on potato salad. People were looking for 2nds and 3rds but it was gone. The only change I made was to add chopped shallots and chopped celery for added flavor and crunch. Will definitely make again and again
