Ingredients:

8 strips bacon
100g
24 potatoes
4080g
2 tbsp olive oil
27g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g
8 tbsp caesar salad dressing
120g
4 stalks onion
50g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Rinse and scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt. Peel them if desired.
- Cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces for faster and more even cooking.
2. Cook the Potatoes:
- Place the potato pieces into a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
- Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and let the potatoes simmer until they are fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes well and allow them to cool slightly.
3. Cook the Bacon:
- While the potatoes are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon strips and cook until they are crispy and browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the bacon from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
4. Mix the Salad:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the mixture and toss to coat the ingredients evenly.
- Add a dash of black pepper for seasoning.
5. Add the Dressing:
- Pour the Caesar salad dressing over the potato mixture. Gently toss until all the potatoes are well coated with the dressing.
6. Chill and Serve:
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, give the salad a good stir to ensure the dressing is well distributed.
7. Garnish and Enjoy:
- For added presentation, you can sprinkle some additional crumbled bacon and green onion on top.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious Bacon Caesar Potato Salad!

Tips:

- Choose waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes for the best texture.

- Cook the bacon until it's crispy for added crunch in the salad.

- Toss the potatoes with the Caesar dressing while they're still warm to help them absorb more flavor.

- Add the green parts of the onion stalks for a pop of color and extra flavor.

- Chill the salad for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
