Easy Bacon Potato Salad

Easy Bacon Potato Salad

Thrown together on a whim one night while we were on the road, this Dill Pickle and Bacon Potato Salad has rapidly become our new favorite potato salad.
Filled with plenty of eggs, bacon, and pickle flavor, this bacon potato salad was a kid and adult favorite from the first bite.

Easy Bacon Potato Salad
Dill pickle and bacon add a whole lot of flavor to this simple potato salad.

Ingredients

• 3 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1/2-3/4 inch pieces
• 3/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/3 cup dill pickle relish
• 1/2 tsp dried dill
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt, adjust to taste
• 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, adjust to taste
• 1/2 cup real bacon crumbles, or 5-6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 6 hard boiled eggs, roughly chopped
• 4 green onions, sliced thin

Instructions

1. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Boil over high heat until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and let cool. 
2. Combine the mayonnaise, dill relish, dill, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine. Add the potatoes, eggs, and bacon to the bowl. Stir to mix well.
3. Sprinkle with green onions and stir to combine. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!

Notes
You can certainly use any potato you like to make this potato salad. However, I love the thin-skinned Yukon Gold potatoes. There's no need to peel them and the texture stays nice for the salad. If you decide to use a russet or red potato, you'll want to peel the potatoes for the best results.
