Made this up just for the 2 of us, since we both like potato salad so much ~ Really enjoyed this one, too, & the green beans gave it a nice twist, as did the use of a vinegar & oil dressing instead of mayo! I'll definitely be making this one again! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick A Chef]
