Chicken Bacon Ranch is such a winning combo, so why not add it to potato salad? Potato salad is one of those dishes that screams summer. I love it because you can make a big batch for a party or family dinner then if you have leftovers it just keeps getting better for the next few days in the fridge. This Chicken Salad/ Potato Salad combo is like a main dish and side dish in one. I love to either serve it in lettuce cups or on top of a salad! When I make potato salad, I love to roast the potatoes but you can totally boil them if you prefer that kind of potato salad. You choose your own destiny in this situation. I am so pumped for this summer because our kitchen remodel is almost done and I am ready to make all the yummy summer goods in there. We have been eating so many popsicles lately and I can’t wait to get back to making my own and sharing the recipes! Our new house has a pool and it has been so nice during quarantine, a serious life saver. Ruthie loves the water so so much so it is an awesome activity to burn some energy and practice her water safety. If you are as excited about summer as I am, then make this chicken bacon ranch potato salad and get in the spirit!
Watermelon sparkling water is always a great addition!

What ranch do you use?
Any cleaner ranch, Primal Kitchen or Tessemaes!
Made this recipe last night for dinner and it was AMAZING!! So simple yet flavorful! This will be a frequent meal in our weekly rotation.
That’s great!!
WOWZA!!! If I could give this a 10,000,000/10 I would! I airfryed my potatoes instead on 400 for 15ish minutes (bc #whynot) and added a little shallot in to give it a little something extra, but you seriously cannot go wrong with this one! SO GOOD!
Love these additions!
This recipe was as good as I thought it would be. We even mixed in some green beans for extra veggies. Delicious! Will definitely make again. Also, kiddo approved
Ohh good idea! So glad the kiddos enjoy!
I don’t normally like potato salad. This little gem was the PERFECT easy meal for meal prep using ingredients I always have on hand. ❤️
Honestly, air frying the potatoes was genius!
Air Fryer potatoes are the best!!!
So easy! So delicious!
I make this at least once a month! Perfect meal prep for lunch when I have to commute to the office.
Made for meal prep this week and this potato salad is so yummy! I made my own ranch dressing and added a little more shredded chicken and it is perfect!
