Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad

Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad in a bowl garnished with chives and grated cheddar cheese and a wooden spoon to the side.

For this weeks Sunday Supper we are having a Picnic and we all know the best part about a Picnic is how fun all the different recipes are to taste test! I chose to make a Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad for this weeks picnic.

Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad is a must have for summer picnics.

It's taken me a bit to perfect this recipe. I started off the first few times making it with leftover baked potatoes but the potato texture was never right.

So I went with boiled red potatoes and left the skin on for texture and loaded it with all our favorite potato toppings.

I love to have a few different potato salad recipes for Summer Picnic's and BBQ's.

There can never be too many options at a picnic on the table!

Boiled Red Potatoes in a large stainless steel bowl with their skins splitting open.

Place 5 pounds of Red Potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water.

Bring to a boil and cook for 30-45 minutes until potatoes are fork tender.

Drain water and allow potatoes to cool uncovered.

Dice potatoes with skin into bite size pieces.

Bacon frying in a large cast iron frying pan.

Brown 3/4 pound (about 8 slices of thick bacon) until crispy.

Drain on a paper towel.

A large stainless steel bowl fully of cooked diced red potatoes with skins, and diced cooked bacon.

Once Bacon is cool enough to handle chop into little bits and add to potatoes.

A stainless steel bowl with mayonnaise, sour cream, greek yogurt, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, garlic, smoked paprika, salt and chives.

In a small bowl add: 
  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 cups Sour Cream or Greek Yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons White Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon Granulated Garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt and Pepper or To Taste
  • 1/3 cup Chopped Chives

Sour Cream mixture poured over the top of diced red potatoes and bacon in a stainless steel bowl.

If your like me you just now realize you forgot a teaspoon of Dijon Mustard so you better add it now.

Toss mixture with potatoes until well coated.

Refrigerate until cold about 3-4 hours.

Shredded Cheddar Cheese added to Baked Potato Salad in a stainless steel bowl.

Stir in 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese.

Cheesy-liciousness! 

Fully Loaded Baked Potato Salad is perfect for Picnics and BBQs from Serena Bakes Simply From Scratch.
Sprinkle with a little more Shredded Cheddar and Chives before serving.

Another favorite Potato Salad for all the summer festivities!
