Loaded.....

I normally make a traditional American potato salad with mayo, eggs, and onions, but occasionally this no mayo version is nice. You'll find many versions of this if you search.  You can certainly add or omit certain ingredients to make this your own Loaded Potato Salad.

2 lbs. redskin potatoes, boiled until fork tender(about 15 - 20 minutes)
3/4 cup sour cream (reduced fat works well too)
4 to 6 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
4 green onions, sliced thinly
3/4 cup shredded cheese ( cheddar or colby work)
s&p to taste

Put cooked potatoes in a mixing bowl and take a knife and slice through them until you have nice chunks. Blend the remaining ingredients in and chill for at least two hours. ( you can  set aside a little of the bacon, cheese and onions for garnish, if you like) Makes 4-6 servings

Sometimes I'll just add the sour cream, green onions and fresh dill to make this vegetarian.
