Deluxe Cheesy Ranch Potato Casserole
This casserole commits fully: russet potatoes tossed with butter, chili powder and ranch dressing, layered with Colby-Monterey Jack, and baked until the top browns and the edges crisp. The ranch does the seasoning work from the inside; the cheese handles the ceiling. Twelve servings in under 90 minutes — built for cookouts, potlucks and second helpings.
