Jalapenos and cheddar cheese make this Jalapeno Popper Potato Salad an ensured win. With a velvety, hot dressing and smoky bites of bacon and egg throughout the salad, it’s a crowd favorite.
Jalapeno Popper Potato Salad
I have actually been having fun with the concept of integrating the spicy tastes of jalapeno poppers with the velvety goodness of potato salad for a long time now, and I’m thankful to state that this recipe is a hit.
While standard jalapeno poppers are made with cream cheese, we weren’t huge fans of the cream cheese taste in the very first recipe effort I evaluated for this potato salad.
So, in lieu of the cream cheese, I have actually bumped up the cheddar cheese here and the potato salad makes 2 thumbs up from everybody now.
If you desire some additional heat, toss in a generous part of chopped jalapenos in addition to the carefully sliced jalapenos in the dressing. I generally include an extra 2-3 tablespoons of chopped jalapenos to our salad.
Know that the heat in this salad will increase after resting over night in the fridge. When I tasted the salad once again after saving it for the night, my tastebuds were shocked– and this formally became my earliest kid’s preferred potato salad due to that additional heat.
