Cheesy Ranch Potatoes

Cheesy Ranch Potatoes

Cheesy Ranch Potatoes are a perfect comfort food side dish recipe and one of life’s simple pleasures.

It’s a magical combination of flavors that go together like peas and carrots!

(only WAY more amazing because, well, there’s cheese…and ranch…and potatoes!).

This dish is perfect for feeding a crowd… it’s easy, inexpensive, and who doesn’t LOVE cheese with anything?!

How to Make Cheesy Ranch Potatoes

Start with about 2 pounds of redskin potatoes, dice them up into small pieces and right into a 9×13 dish.

I made life easier by using one of those throw away foil pans.

I love to cook, but not such a fan of washing dishes 🙂

Cheesy Ranch Potatoes

Season them with a packet of dry ranch seasoning, kosher salt, and pepper.

Give it a toss to coat everything, then add some ranch dressing and toss that around as well.

Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes in a 425 degree oven.

I did stir them every 15 minutes or so.

After 45 minutes give them a taste.

I cut mine into fairly small pieces, so 45 minutes was perfect, but if your potatoes are bigger it may take a few more minutes.

Stir in a cup of cheese and sprinkle another cup of cheese over top.

Cheese just makes everything better in my opinion.

Put Cheesy Ranch Potatoes back into the oven for 5 minutes and it’s ooey gooey cheesy deliciousness!
