Smashed Potato Salad Was My Favorite Lunch This Month.<\/h2>\n

\"Lindsay<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

As a basic girl born and raised in the Midwest, these are three top-tier restaurant items for me:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • a shreddy, choppy salad<\/li>\n
  • crispy golden French fries<\/li>\n
  • runny, drippy, housemade ranch dressing. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    This salad is for anyone who loves that combo. It is a spin on the viral smashed potato salad \u2013 but more lettuce-forward instead of being a picnic-style potato salad. Doing it this way preserves a bit of the crispiness of the potatoes, but it\u2019s also just really pleasant to eat with all the tender-crunch bites. <\/p>\n

    I had this for lunch several times this month, and every bite just carried me to a really joyful place. I want this for you. <\/p>\n

    It\u2019s tangy, bold, substantial but also light and shreddy at the same time. We added tuna one night for dinner (extra protein, husband-led initiative) and it worked great. Delicious. But I\u2019m emotionally attached to it as-is \u2013 just the pickley salad, the potatoes, and the creamy ranch as a trio. My besties.<\/p>\n

    Hope you love this!<\/p>\n
