Bacon Blue Potato Salad

Give your boring potato salad some zip with blue cheese and bacon. What more could a steak want. To make things even easier try using 1 cup of blue cheese salad dressing in place of the blue cheese, mayo and vinegar.

Ingredients
8 oz blue cheese, crumbled
1 lb slab bacon, 1/2-in diced
2 lb new potatoes
1/2 c mayonnaise
1/4 c apple cider vinegar
4 green onions, sliced in rounds

Directions
Add diced bacon to a dry pan and cook on medium low heat till crispy, 20-40 min. While the bacon is cooking wash and quart potatoes to make equal in size. Add to a pot and fill with water. Cook until fork tender. While the bacon and potatoes are cooking make the dressing. Add green onion and blue cheese to a small bowl and set aside. In a large bowl whisk mayonnaise and cider vinegar, add salt and pepper to taste. Once the potatoes are fork tender drain, add to dressing and toss to coat potatoes. Remove bacon from grease with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel. Add bacon to potatoes and mix. Let chill for 1-2 hrs. When ready to serve bring up to room temp and add blue cheese green onion mixture and toss. Great served steak!
