Baked Cheesy Ranch Potatoes (Just 4 Ingredients!) @natashaskitchen

Sometimes the best recipes are the simplest. These baked ranch potatoes have just 4 ingredients and they’re perfect for dinner; whether it’s for the fam or a party!

My Mama-in-law thought up this recipe and baked it for us on our last visit to California. It seems like every time we visit, I come home with new recipes. I love it! Even my son found these cheesy potatoes hard to resist and he doesn’t usually like potatoes. Family approved :). 

If you aren’t convinced yet, please stare at this next photo awhile… 😉

Baked Cheesy Ranch Potatoes (Just 4 Ingredients!) @natashaskitchen

Ingredients for cheesy ranch potatoes:

3 lbs baby red potatoes, unpeeled
1/2-1 cup buttermilk or yogurt ranch dressing
Garlic salt, to taste
1 – 1 1/2 cups finely shredded Mexican cheese blend
Chives or green onions to garnish, optional

Baked Cheesy Ranch Potatoes (Just 4 Ingredients!) @natashaskitchen

How to make oven roasted potatoes:

1. Cut potatoes into 1″ to 1 1/2″ pieces. Fill a 5 Qt pot half full with salted warm water (about 7 cups water and 1 tsp salt). Add potatoes and bring to a boil then cook at a low boil for 8-12 min depending on size of potatoes (they should be nearly done and should be fairly easy to pierce with a fork) Drain well.

2. Drizzle 1/2 cup ranch dressing directly into the pot with drained potatoes and gently toss – just enough to coat evenly.

3. Transfer potatoes into greased casserole dish. Sprinkle potatoes with garlic salt to taste. Bake uncovered at 400˚F for 20-25 minutes. Remove casserole from oven and set oven to broil.

4. Sprinkle the top with 1 cup Mexican cheese blend, return to oven and broil for 2-3 min or until cheese is melted. It’s perfectly ok to add more garlic salt at the end if you under-seasoned it the first time (speaking from experience)

    I have made this numerous times and it’s always a big hit. Sometimes to make it a complete midwestern hotdish(that’s what we call casseroles in Minnesota) I add in crumbled bacon, chicken thighs( sautéed in bacon grease because YUM!), thawed green beans, and extra ranch. It’s alway delicious no matter which way I make it. Thank you for a fantastic recipe.

    Have a jar of ranch dressing that’s not my favorite (I’ve discoverd Buttermilk Ranch is the only type of Ranch dressing I LOVE)…. Had some red potatoes… .made this dish! I think it still needs something… but maybe it’s just because I want buttermilk ranch instead of regular! Maybe some dried dill? Either way, I love ranch, and cheese, and potatoes, and this is an easy dish I’ll be making over and over again!

      Hi Austin, you would have to alter the recipe to do a bake-only method. I would spread them out more on a baking sheet and you will have to bake them for 45 minutes and up to an hour depending on thickness of potatoes. I’m not sure I would bake for that long with the ranch coating. It would turn out to be a completely different recipe 🙂

      I would probably heat it in an oven until hot and maybe sprinkle on a little extra cheese before baking then just before serving, garnish with chives or even parsley.

      I prefer the waxy texture of the red potatoes, but I think you could make it work fine with white potatoes, but you might have to adjust the baking time. Bake until easily pierced with a knife 🙂

    Trying to clean up my fridge before moving and this was great! Used my last bits of ranch, used mozzarella (because that’s what I had) and sprinkled with left over bacon bits (why not? 😂) it was delicious! Thank you.

    Whew😅! So cheap and easy! I was scrambling to find something for a potluck that did require going to the store and actually was edible. This hit the spot. It is like a loaded mashed potato. This could easily be turned into a casserole with chicken, spinach, and green onions (which I added for color and additional flavor).

        The broiler isn’t necessary. You could just add the cheese 5 minutes before it’s done baking and put it back in the oven to melt the cheese 🙂

    I am wondering what these would taste like if I threw in some extra vegetables. I have too much canned veggies and need something to do with all of them.

    I made these the other day for dinner. I did tweak it a little bit. I did garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper for seasoning. I also mixed in a little bit of cheese and some scallions. I skipped boiling and baked them in the oven for about 35-40 minutes. Then topped with cheese and broiled and finished with more scallions sprinkled on top. It was delicious, I had to use a lot of self control to keep from eating the whole dish of potatoes. My 4 year old who can be picky sometimes was also a huge fan.

    I made these for my cousin as a celebration for her being free from another year of prison — I mean, pharmacy school, hahaha. Anyway, she LOVES, absolutely LOVES potatoes, and I had shown her this recipe; she was excited! She and her family and my coworkers (I brought some in to work) LOVED them. They all said it was delicious! Just a question, Natasha: what did you use on top of those potatoes, chives or green onions? I used parsley as a last minute version (still good).

      I haven’t tried it that way, but I think it could work to pre-boil the potatoes, let them cool completely then cover and refrigerate and finish it off the next day. You might need to bake it slightly longer since you’ll be using cold potatoes from the fridge.

        I could never find whole milk Greek Yogurt for my baby. So, I just buy plain whole milk. I was so happy to find this recipe because now, I can give her Greek Yogurt. She loves yogurt bites!

      I haven’t tried it in a crock pot so I’m not sure if that would dry out the potatoes to reheat them there. If they are made per the recipe, they won’t turn out dry. Do you mean if you aren’t serving them right away? I’d recommend baking them per instructions then covering with foil and keeping them in a warm oven to keep them warm without drying out the potatoes. I hope that helps! 🙂

      I’ve heard of that happening if you go from cold to hot really quickly; for example pouring cold water into a blazing hot pan is a very bad idea. Or the other way around. My sister had that happen when she preheated a glass dish to use it as a steam basin and then added warm water to a blazing hot Pyrex. She said it shattered/exploded!

      Yes, just make sure they are about the same size pieces – about 1″ in thickness and boil them until they are nearly cooked the same way. The texture will be slightly different (not as smooth as red potatoes), but the recipe will still work :).
