Place the potato pieces in a large pot, cover with water and cook over a medium high flame until it reaches a boil. Turn flame down and simmer for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender. Once the potatoes are done cooking, place them in a colander and rinse them under cold water. Let drain.
While the potatoes are cooking, cook your bacon according to package directions. Remove cooked bacon from the pan and crumble into small pieces.
In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, the shredded cheeses, the diced jalapeno peppers, onions, and crumbled bacon. Stir to thoroughly combine.
Add the cooked potatoes to the jalapeno popper mixture. Toss well to coat the potatoes.
Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator. Chill for at least 2 hours.
