Ingredients
  

For the Jalapeño Popper Roasted Potato Salad
  • 2 lb baby potatoes halved
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled bacon
  • 1/4 cup diced jalapeños fresh or pickled
  • 2 green onions sliced
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until all the potatoes are evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast them in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fork-tender.
  4. Step 4: While the potatoes are roasting, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, diced jalapeños, sliced green onions, lime juice, and sour cream in a separate bowl. Mix until well combined and creamy.
  5. Step 5: Once the potatoes are done roasting, allow them to cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Then, gently fold the warm potatoes into the cheese mixture until evenly coated.
  6. Step 6: Your Jalapeño Popper Roasted Potato Salad can be served warm or at room temperature. Garnish with additional green onions or jalapeños if desired.
