  • Mix the Base: In a large bowl, combine sour cream, mayo, ranch seasoning, half the cheese, half the bacon, and green onions (if using). Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the Potatoes: Fold in the drained potatoes until everything is well coated.
  • Layer & Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Top with remaining cheese and bacon.
  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until hot, bubbly, and golden on top.
  • Serve Hot: Garnish with extra green onions or a drizzle of ranch, and enjoy!

    • Tips & Variations

    • Make it a Main: Add diced cooked chicken or smoked sausage for a complete meal.
    • Low-Carb Swap: Use cauliflower florets in place of potatoes for a keto-friendly version.

    • Prep Ahead: Assemble the dish the night before and refrigerate. Just bake when ready!

    Perfect Pairings

    • Grilled or smoked meats (especially ribs or chicken)
    • Green salad or coleslaw
