Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 3 lbs baby red potatoes, unpeeled
  • 0.5 cup buttermilk ranch or yogurt ranch dressing
  • 1 tsp garlic salt to taste
  • 1 cup finely shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 2 Tbsp chives or green onions optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cut the baby red potatoes into 1" to 1 1/2" pieces. Fill a 5-quart pot halfway with warm salted water (about 7 cups water and 1 tsp salt). Add the potatoes and bring to a boil. Cook at a low boil for 8-12 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. They should be nearly done and easy to pierce with a fork. Drain well.
  • Drizzle 1/2 cup of ranch dressing over the drained potatoes in the pot. Gently toss to coat evenly.
  • Transfer the potatoes into a greased casserole dish. Sprinkle garlic salt to taste over the potatoes. Bake uncovered at 400°F for 20-25 minutes.
  • Remove the casserole from the oven and set the oven to broil. Sprinkle 1 cup of Mexican cheese blend over the top of the potatoes. Return to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
  • Garnish with chopped chives or green onions if desired.

Notes

Feel free to adjust the seasoning to your taste preferences. You can also add crispy cooked bacon bits for extra flavor.
