Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 6
Pour the ranch mixture evenly over the potatoes, making sure they are well coated.
Step 7
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cups of cheddar cheese on top for an extra layer of cheesiness.
Step 8
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven.
Step 9
