Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Bacon Pimento Cheese Potato Salad

[heart_this] · Jul 29, 2021 · 1 Comment

Bacon Pimento Cheese Potato Salad

A potato salad with pimento pepper, cheddar cheese and bacon in a creamy dressing!

Pimento and cheese is such a good flavour combo and it’s amazing in a creamy potato salad! This is a pretty basic potato salad with cooked diced potatoes mixed with shredded cheese, diced pimentos, crumbled bacon. The dressing is a creamy combination of mayonnaise and sour cream with vinegar for some tanginess and hot sauce for heat. I like to have a hint of onion which I include either grated or diced, in addition to sliced green onions! This potato salad is amazing while still warm from boiling the potatoes and it’s even better if you let it chill in the fridge overnight, which gives the flavours time to come out and mingle! If you are looking for an easy and tasty side for any meal, this pimento cheese potato salad fits the bill!
