Delicious Ranch Potato Salad Recipe for Every Occasion

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 2 lbs potatoes (peeled and diced)
  • 1 cup ranch dressing (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup celery (chopped)
  • 1 cup green onions (sliced)
  • 1 cup hard-boiled eggs (chopped)
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Boil the Potatoes

    Place the diced potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.

    Check doneness with a fork; they should be soft but not mushy.
  2. Prepare Ingredients

    While the potatoes are boiling, chop the celery, green onions, and hard-boiled eggs.

    You can prepare these ingredients in advance to save time.
  3. Drain and Cool Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool for about 10 minutes.

    Cooling prevents the ranch dressing from becoming watery.
  4. Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, celery, green onions, hard-boiled eggs, and ranch dressing.

    Gently mix to avoid breaking the potatoes.
  5. Season and Add Cheese

    Add salt, black pepper, and cheddar cheese (if using) to the mixture and stir until evenly distributed.

    Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Chill and Serve

    Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to enhance the flavors.

    Serve chilled for the best taste.
