Is there anything more comforting than a big bowl of potato salad? I would argue, not. When we say “potato salad” in my family, we’re talking about huge tupperware containers, mayo, onions (hopefully chopped small), egg yolks, and pounds upon pounds of potatoes. Usually, potato salad is pulled out during summer grill season, or for special occasions other times of the year. It’s a lot of prep, but well worth it when you know you have company coming. In my family, parties just wouldn’t be the same without it! This Crockpot Bacon Ranch Potato Salad? WAY different. The fact that it’s served hot makes it perfect for the fall and winter months. This is such an easier version of potato salad, too. Chop up the potatoes, stir up the sauce, and drop it all in the slow cooker. Hot potato salad with a creamy ranch and bacon sauce?

Morgan Jennifer Smith saysNovember 19, 2013 at 4:04 pmI made this dish for dinner last night and my boys loved it. I did double the recipe and replaced the bacon with turkey bacon, and used fat-free versions of the cream cheese, milk and potato soup to make this a lighter dish. Thanks for sharing!Reply
