Hearty Potato Dish (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Main Ingredients

01 - 4 pounds russet potatoes
02 - 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
04 - 1 cup mayonnaise
05 - ¾ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
06 - 1 teaspoon kosher salt
07 - 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
08 - 12 ounces bacon, cooked, cooled, and chopped
09 - 6 green onions, chopped
10 - 1 ½ cups medium cheddar cheese, shredded

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Set your oven to 400° F and let it warm up.
02 - Wash potatoes and put them on a baking sheet. Poke each one 4-5 times with a fork. Brush them with a bit of olive oil, add a sprinkle of kosher salt, and bake for 50-60 minutes until a skewer slides in easily. Take them out and cool for 5 minutes.
03 - Once they're cool enough to touch, take the skin off the potatoes and cut them into chunks about 1-inch big. Don't worry if they fall apart a bit. Throw everything in a big mixing bowl. While they're still warm, drizzle the apple cider vinegar over them and let them sit for 15-30 minutes until they cool down.
04 - Fry the bacon in a big pan or bake it. Let it drain and cool off. Break it into small pieces.
05 - In a smaller bowl, stir together the mayonnaise with the sour cream. Add the kosher salt and pepper.
06 - After the potatoes have cooled, pour the sauce over them. Add the bacon pieces, chopped green onions, and shredded cheese. Mix everything gently. Taste it and add more salt and pepper if needed.
07 - Put it in the fridge for at least 3 hours or leave it overnight before serving. You can keep it in the fridge for up to 4 days.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Try cooking your bacon in the oven to avoid making your entire house smell like bacon.
