Lone Star Ranch-Style Potato Salad
  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the whole potatoes and cook until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water to cool, and cut into 1-inch cubes. Move to a large serving bowl and refrigerate until fully chilled.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, mix the ranch dressing mix, mayonnaise, and green onion in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour so the flavors blend.

  3. 3

    Wrap the bacon in paper towels and set it on a plate. Microwave until crisp, about 15 minutes depending on your microwave’s power. Let the bacon cool.

  4. 4

    Add the mayonnaise mixture to the potatoes and toss to coat. Crumble the bacon into the bowl and stir briefly. Serve.
