Cheesy Ranch Potatoes Recipe

These ranch potatoes smothered in cheese are one of my favorite side dishes. If I am being honest there have been a few nights when they have been my dinner.

These cheesy ranch potatoes are so dang easy to make and they are so delicious. The perfect combination of potato, cheese, and ranch dressing all mixed together to make one epic side dish.

You can make these into mashed potatoes if you want to after baking them. Just mush them all together into mashed potato goodness.

Ingredients

  • Russet Potatoes
  • Olive Oil
  • Ranch Seasoning Mix
  • Garlic Powder
  • Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  • Salt and pepper

Toppings - These are fantastic when dipped into a bit of sour cream, topped with bacon bits and green onions, or on their own.

Potatoes - I like to use Russet Potatoes because they are cheap and readily available at almost any grocery store. Make sure to scrub your potatoes before using them to make sure they are clean and ready. These can also be made with red potatoes.

Ranch Dressing Mix - We use the Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning mix and love the taste of it.

Cheese - You can use any cheese that you enjoy for this recipe. We tend to use shredded cheddar cheese or Colby jack cheese but you could easily use any shredded cheese.

Equipment Needed

Large Bowl - A large bowl works perfectly for tossing the potatoes in the olive oil and ranch dressing mix and making sure each piece gets coated.

Baking Sheet - I highly suggest using a baking sheet with sides just in case the potatoes move around when you are putting them into or taking them out of the oven. You can make these in a baking dish if that is what you have available.

Parchment Paper - parchment paper makes it a lot easier to remove the ranch potatoes and also helps make sure half the potato doesn't get stuck to your baking sheet. If you do not have any parchment paper you can use non-stick cooking spray on your baking sheet.

Foil - Foil will help make sure your potatoes do not burn during their heat bath in the oven.

Recipe Tips

Don't forget to preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

I like to leave the skins on the potatoes for added flavor and crispiness.

If you are not a fan of cheese you can leave off that step and enjoy ranch potatoes.

These ranch potatoes can be made in a casserole dish if you want them to bake together and not be as crispy. Just toss everything into a casserole dish and top with cheese right before they are done. Cover with foil and bake for 60 minutes at 350 degrees then remove foil and bump heat to 400 degrees for the remaining 15 minutes.

Make sure your potatoes are tender before adding the shredded cheese on top of them.
