I bought the hubs a Traeger Smoker and he made these amazing “baked” potatoes on it and I started thinking how tasty those would be in a potato salad so for 4th of July I decided to give it a whirl and it was delicious!

3/4 cups light mayonnaise

3/4 cup fat free sour cream

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1/4 cup Ranch dressing

1 tablespoon yellow mustard

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon celery seed

8 russet potatoes, rubbed with olive oil and sea salt, smoked and diced, leave unpeeled (you can use any kind of potatoes you like and cook them any way you like)

2 – 4 celery stalks, diced

1 onion, diced

1 – 2 handfuls of bacon crumbles

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

5 hard boiled eggs, diced

1 bunch green onions, diced

1  In a large bowl, mix together mayo, sour cream, vinegar, Ranch, mustard, salt, pepper and celery seeds.  Add potatoes to mixture and stir until coated.

2  Add celery, onion, bacon and cheese and stir then stir in eggs.  Chill 1 hour before serving.

3  Garnish with green onions before serving.
