Potato Salad With Green Beans Recipe


Potato Salad With Green Beans Recipe
I love potato salad and where I go, it goes or where I am, it is ;) This recipe is one of my favorites but if you don't want the green beans then it's great without them too.

Ingredients
  • 1-1/2 cups mayonnaise, I prefer Hellman's
  • 1/3 cup milk, homogenized or half and half coffee cream
  • 1-1/2 to 2 Tbsp. Zesty Italian salad dressing
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 3 - 4 large Yukon Gold potatoes, cooked for approximately 15-20 minutes and diced or chopped
  • 2 cups green beans, cooked fresh and cut in pieces or canned(8 oz.) cut green beans, drained
  • 1 celery rib, diced
  • 1/2 cup spring onions, sliced on an angle
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 1/3 cup green olives, sliced (optional)
  • Lettuce leaves, I prefer Boston or Romaine
  • For garnish:
  • Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 - 4 bacon slices, cooked crisp and crumbled
  • *I use turkey bacon but that's just me.

Directions
  1. In a large bowl, beat mayonnaise, milk, Zesty Italian dressing, salt and pepper with a whisk until blended.
  2. Pour over potatoes, green beans, celery, onions and olives.
  3. Fold gently until everything is coated with dressing.
  4. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 - 4 hours.
  5. Leave in the bowl or line a salad bowl or plate with romaine lettuce and spoon salad into the center.
  6. Garnish with parsley and crumbled bacon.
  7. Note: I often increase the dressing ingredients because sometimes after refrigerating I think it needs a little extra added. The potatoes are absorbent and I like the salad to have a creamy texture.
