Yum! I am always on the lookout for great Weight Watchers recipes and this one fits the bill. I liked the addition of the Ranch dressing. Used the olive oil based lite mayo and it worked well.

This is a wonderful tasting dish. It's hard to believe it's a WW recipe, so satisfying. Will make this again for sure, thanks for sharing. Made for kittencal's forum recipe tag game.

This is really good tater salad! Very similar to my mom's but with the addition of ranch dressing mix and carrots. I wanted to add carrots to it, but let's just say the bag had been in the fridge too long, ew! But I have no doubt that carrots would add a wonderful added crunch. I too used green onions. Thanks for sharing the recipe. :)

When I first made the dressing for this, I tasted it and thought "oh no". It was not tart. There wasn't anything tart-sweet going on, which is usually something I need in a potato salad. I added about one tablespoon of cider vinegar but held off on any additional sugar because, well, I just thought I shouldn't change it any further. I mixed in the celery, carrots and onion, and put it in the fridge to wait for the potatoes to cool. After they did so, I folded the dressing mixture and taters together and.....oh wow. Really excellent. I think the sweetness may be coming from the carrots? They are pretty sweet and good in this bag. This salad isn't tart-sweet like southern potatoe salad, but it is very delicious nonetheless. Thank you for a great new way to make potato salad. FWIW, I used lowfat Hellman's mayonnaise. I had med-small potatoes; I think they took about 25 minutes on a full rolling boil for a fork to pierce them easily. They were boiled whole and unpeeled. They weren't waterlogged either, which has happened sometimes when I was negligent.
