Cold Baked Potato Salad
Ingredients
- 2 pounds russet potatoes
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 8 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
- 5 green onions, chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- 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 to taste.
- 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.
