Creamy Jalapeno Bacon Potato Salad

9 Jun

I have a thing for jalapenos. Evidently I have a thing for jalapenos and bacon as well. This a twist on my Jalapeno Ranch Potato Salad and it is so good.

Creamy Jalapeno Bacon Potato Salad

Recipe by Micha

A new take on the usual potato salad. Tender potatoes in a creamy dressing meets crunchy bacon and a slight bite from the jalapenos.

Prep time: 20 minutes

Cook time: 30 minutes

Total time: 50 minutes plus chilling time

Ingredients

  • 2 to 2 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 3 or 4 slices bacon, crisply cooked
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1-2 Tablespoons jarred jalapenos, diced if desired
  • To taste salt
  • To taste black pepper

Cooking Directions

In a 3 quart or larger sauce pan cover potatoes with water, add salt, and cook over medium heat until fork tender. Drain potatoes and set aside to cool slightly.

In a large bowl mix mayonnaise and sour cream, add potatoes and stir to combine. Add bacon, jalapenos, salt and pepper and gently stir.

Cover and refrigerate until well chilled.

    Visiting from Eat at Home. My husband would love this! I’ve never thought to add jalapeños to my potato salad, and of course bacon makes everything better. I’ll be pinning so I remember to try it. Thanks for posting!
