Anyone that knows me in real life that I’m not the biggest Ranch dressing fan. As far as this Bacon Ranch Potato Salad? I have my lil’ sis (who I no longer consider evil for suggesting such a salad knowing I’m not a Ranch fan) to thank because I gotta tell ya, I love this potato salad! And so do the folks (my favorite octogenarians) who jumped on this like there was no tomorrow.

We’ve been having the dreariest, dark, cold, wet weather all week. How about you? I know it’s good for the plants but I get feeling a little blue. I want to get outside and DO things! Instead, we’ve tucked in and made something warm and comforting and creamy and cheesy! Three Cheese Chicken Casserole!

I have a little secret. I’ve been holding out on you. See, I’ve been making these Hasselback au Gratin Potatoes for months now and never posted them. They’re amazing, they’re gorgeous and they’re amazing. Oh, I said that already. Well, I can’t say it enough. As a matter of fact, every time I come across this post and see these pics, bad as they are, my mouth starts to water! These are a must make in my book.

Ok, so they’re not Irish and they’re not really Nachos. What Irish Pub Nachos are is ooey, gooey, cheesy potato deliciousness and there’s corned beef or bacon sprinkled throughout.

I love cooking for my folks – my “victims” I call them coz they get the brunt of all my cooking experiments. You’d think at their ages (late 80s early 90s) they’d be jaded about food so I love it when their eyes light up and I hear little happy noises when they eat. It all happened with these Cheddar Bacon Jalapeno Stuffed Mushrooms – and I joined right in.
