The purpose of this blog is to keep track of my experience with Bountiful Baskets. I will do price comparisons every other week, plus share recipes and tips for using the produce.

Crockpot Ranch Potatoes

002

I don’t think that you can go wrong with potatoes and ranch.  Add cheese to the mix and you for sure have a winning combination.  This simple recipe is basically just cooked potatoes, ranch dressing and cheese.  I cooked the potatoes in the crockpot, but you would boil them or roast them, whichever you prefer.  I liked the crockpot method. 

I used red potatoes because that is what came in our baskets.  They have nice, thin skin, so I left it on.  You could use any other type of potato, such as russets or golds.

2-3 pounds potatoes, quartered
1-2 cloves garlic, minced (or a big spoonful if you buy it by the already-minced jar)
1 cup water
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1/2 cup cheddar cheese
sliced green onion or chives

Place the potatoes, garlic and water in the crockpot and cook for about four hours on low, or until the potatoes are tender.  Drain the water and place in a bowl.

Add the ranch, cheese and onions and stir to combine.  Serve.
