This is a wonderful recipe. My husband wanted me to make a potatoe salad with red potatoes. He doesn't like sour cream so I put dijon mustard in place of sour cream. He also doesn't like cheese! I also added more bacon, and added chives, and red onion. I added pickles, and celery too. It was so good! We ate it hot last night, but today it is even better cold! I wish I could make it with sour cream, and cheese, but hubby won't let me!! So this is a whole different recipe, but very very yummy!

I made this the other night and it went over great. My daughter who is 3 hates potatos but she had seconds. I did have to alter the recipe due to the fact that i had no sour cream, I used Dill Pickel chip dip instead. Next time i will try it the way it was supose to be made but i think my way was pretty darn yummy.

I made this tonight for our last minute family BBQ dinner. I boiled some whole garlic cloves with the potatoes and when I mixed the potato salad together, I added a little garlic powder, paprika and used pepper jack cheese. (It's all about using what's ON HAND.) Using fresh cloves is KEY. I also used half regular mayo and half hot mayo. Just enough for our little family and darn tasty.

Fantastic!!! I did four stars b/c I followed so many of the suggestions of the other reviewers, but trust me, the end result was FIVE STARS. I cubed, then baked my potatoes (400 degrees for 30 min), after tossing them with olive oil, salt, paper, and lots of montreal steak seasoning. (I munched on quite a few of those, as they could be a recipe in themselves!) I also upped the bacon to 4 slices, omitted the onions (family preference), and doubled the cheese. We ate it chilled and it was so good. I can't wait for heated up leftovers tomorrow for lunch! I bet it will be even better. Thanks for a new summer favorite!

Kinda bland as is. Nice mild flavor AFTER adding a few dashes of celery seed, fresh parsley, garlic powder, paprika and two more pieces of crumbled bacon.

BIG hit at my last BBQ! Great alternative to the normal old potato salad! I used a couple more strips of bacon.

I was in charge of potato salad the 4th of July. My brother-in-law requested chunks of potato and nothing crunchy. This recipe is great. My only problem was deciding what size of red potatoes to use. I went with the larger ones because they have fewer "eyes". I peeled most of the potato, left out the red onion and chives and doubled the bacon. This potato salad is aso good when it's heated just a little. I like it better that way. I'll definitely make it again.

VERY yummy! I didn't quite measure my onion (used Vidalia) and chives, but I think I was close to the amount called for but maybe a little more. I did use about 2 slices of bacon, maybe more. Made it Friday, ate it Sunday. I loved it! Father-in-law said it tasted like potato salad - I guess that's a good endorsement.

Even though I tweaked this to our tastes, I'm rating this 5 stars because it's the perfect starter recipe. You can add more or less of whichever ingrediants you want to suit your taste. The basic idea is wonderful. Such a great change to the same old boring potato salad. Thanks so much for the idea. YUM!

Awesome with the extra bacon! I accidentally overcooked my potatoes, so I just ended up mashing them. Yummy!!!

This is an awesome recipe but you defintely need to use ALOT more bacon. I used about 6 or 7 strips. Also make sure to salt heavily or you will end up with a very bland salad. I love to warm it up before I eat...its wonderful

This was just the recipe I was looking for. My grocery store deli sells it and I fell in love. Cross between sour crean potato salad and a baked potatoe with cour crean, cheese, bacon & chives. this is a keeper!
