Ingredients
  

  • 8 medium Russet potatoes cut into small cubes
  • 1 cup plain yogurt or substitute with 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 pack bacon strips cut into pieces and baked until crispy
  • 1 onion minced
  • Chives amount to your liking
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Wash and cut potatoes into small cubes. Boil in a pot of water for 20-25 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and cool slightly.
  • Combine plain yogurt (or mayonnaise), salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  • Fold cooled potatoes into the dressing. Stir in minced onion, chopped chives, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix gently to avoid mashing the potatoes.
  • Top the salad with crispy bacon bits and additional shredded cheddar cheese. Garnish with extra chives for color.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature. Alternatively, chill for a few hours before serving to let the flavors meld.

Notes

For a smoky twist, add a sprinkle of smoked paprika. This dish pairs beautifully with grilled meats or as a standalone meal.
