Green beans and dill pickles perk up this pretty potato salad, and the Italian-style dressing adds a refreshing tang. My Irish grandmother made it for family gatherings, even though I've changed a bit, Nanny always comes to mind when I dish it up. -Marguerite Novicke, Vineland, New Jersey

I was skeptical about this recipe because of the strange mixture of ingredients, but I needed a potato salad recipe without mayo so I decided to give it a shot. It was absolutely delicious! Everyone loved it and I will definitely be making it again. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This Dilly Bean Potaot Salad is now one that my church requests I make for our summer carry-ins. It is a perfect recipe for a hot summer day. No eggs or mayo for spoilage. The taste is just awesome!
