Instructions
Boil the baby potatoes in a large pot of salted water until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and let them cool slightly before chopping them into bite-sized pieces.
Combine the dressing by mixing mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
Mix in the chopped potatoes, diced jalapeños, shredded cheddar cheese, and green onions to the dressing bowl. Stir gently until well-coated.
Chill the salad by covering the bowl with plastic wrap and placing it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Serve the salad as a delightful side dish at your next gathering.
Optional: Garnish with additional chopped green onions for an extra pop of color.
