We are in the thick of potato salad season (yes that’s a thing) and this Bacon Dill Roasted Potato Salad is all I need this summer!! Gone are the days of boiled potatoes mixed with mayo… roasted potatoes with a light vinaigrette is where it’s at! I am so excited to be partnering with Nakano Rice Vinegar again to show you how to arm yourself with the best side dish for any party. When you cook a lot you quickly realize flavors that just always work together. Bacon and vinegar are a match made in heaven! The thick and crispy balanced with the bright tart vinegar tastes so incredible and pair so well with the potatoes. I love myself some red potatoes in particular because they roast so well with the skin on! AKA – less work. YAY! Another huge win for this potato salad? No mayo – which means no raw egg, which means it can sit out at room temp a lot longer than your standard tater salad.
I love that this recipe tastes great when you first take the potatoes out and dress it and it is still warm, but it gets even better as it sits for a bit. You can even make this the day before and all I do is add a bit more oil and vinegar the next day to liven it up a bit. I thought of this recipe when I was up in northern California at a cabin by the Russian River with friends! I made lots of the food and we had a ton of potatoes so I told my friend to get some bacon and dill at the store too. About an hour later this dish was born and everyone was very into it!! I absolutely LOVE that Nakano came out with an Organic Rice Vinegar and if you want to try it out you can get a coupon here (expires 8/31/17)!! Now let’s get cookin’ shall we?

Just got the ingredients & planning to make this for a get together this week! Looks so yummy & I can’t wait to try it!!!!!
Awesome!! I hope you love it!!
Would you recommend serving this warm? Also do you know about how many servings this makes?
Warm is good but even just leaving it out and having it room temperature is fabulous!! Also not sure about servings. Depends on how much people can eat but around 8 – 10 for a side!
I prepared as directed, it was light and delicious. Thanks for posting the recipe.
Great!
Love this recipe. If I have leftover dressing how long can it keep?
I would say 2 weeks!!
I’ve made this a few times and it is delicious!
Awesome!
The flavors are good. I added more bacon, cause you know, it’s bacon. I think I let my potatoes sit out too long before mixing it with the dressing because it didn’t absorb the flavor that much. Or I didn’t dress it in time because I was afraid it would get soggy. (Made it at home and brought to a picnic). Next time I will dress it right away and let it merry a bit before serving.
Oh yes the longer it sits the better it gets!
