Ingredients
  

  • 6 russet potatoes peeled and cubed
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup green onions chopped
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon crumbled
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1/2 cup crushed cornflakes or breadcrumbs optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, ranch dressing, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, and crumbled bacon.
  • Add the cooked potatoes to the bowl and gently fold them into the mixture until well coated.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Transfer the potato mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Drizzle the melted butter over the top and, if desired, sprinkle with crushed cornflakes or breadcrumbs for added crunch.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
  • Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For a spicy twist, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes or a handful of chopped jalapeños. You can also use Greek yogurt in place of sour cream for a lighter version.
