Crazy Good Ranch Potatoes
Posted by in FoodWarning: you’ll want to eat too much of this. I’m going to have to relegate this recipe to a once a year situation I think. It’s THAT good. You end up with crunchy potatoes with a kicky ranch sauce with plenty of cheesy goodness.

Ingredients
- 2 pounds potatoes, cut into bite size chunks (skin on)

Hate to spoil your fun, but I could imagine a version with yogurt instead of sour cream and low-fat mayo, and maybe ONE cup of cheese instead of two??
Boy, this does sound wonderful!
Definitely, but then it’s just not as evil.
I normally am not a potato-lover, but this sounds amazing!
My hubby loves potatoes, being from Sweden. Thanks so much for another potato recipe.
I am ALWAYS a potato lover and this sounds divine. Perfect for a cold evening.
I’m forwarding this to my daughters!
I’m such a potato lover from way back (steak and potatoes farm girl), and this recipe practically makes me weepy, because it has all the stuff I love. Thanks, Brette!
Yeah, I could cry about potatoes too. I love them that much. It’s wrong.
