Not Your Mama's
I have this potato salad I whip up regularly. It's really yummy. I talk about it in an earlier post (A Potato Salad Kinda Day). It's a good ol' stand-by and nothin' like the kind you get at the deli counter. I decided to mix it up a bit and forge into new territory. How about Bacon Ranch Potato Salad? Oh yeah, Bacon Ranch it is. Boil up a couple pounds of red potatoes, in generously salted water. While the spuds are cooling make up the creamy dressing. 2/3 cups mayo, 1/4 cup buttermilk, 2 Tablespoons cider vinegar, one finely chopped clove of garlic, 2 chopped scallions, 1 teaspoon of sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Chop up 1/2 -1 cup celery, add to the boiled potatoes and toss in the dressing. To top it all off, add 6 slices of crispy fried bacon. Yummy. Not the norm, but could easily become the norm. Definitely not your mama's potato salad, but definitely sure to please.
