Cheesy Red Potato Salad With Bacon #RSC

Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. I always heard that the skin of the potato is very healthy for you but my kids don't eat brown potato skin. For some reason they love red potato with the skin on it and of course all kids love ranch . Once you get the hang of this recipe you can make it in 20 minutes especially if you use precooked bacon. You can salt and pepper this recipe to taste but we like it as is. Lastly this can be served warm or cold
